Loading_state property of dcc.Loading component is None

Dash Python
1

Hello, I am trying to change a component property when a Loading component is called.
The loader works perfectly fine, but a callback, whose Input is the loading_state property of the Loading component, is not being triggered.
Indeed, this property is always None, even though the Loading component is working when needed.
And I would expect that dictionary to have the form given in the docs:
https://dash.plotly.com/dash-core-components/loading

The callback is the following:

@dash_app.callback(
            Output(component_id='My_map', component_property= 'style'),
            Input(component_id='loading_number_from_map', component_property= 'loading_state'),
            )
def update_map_cursor(loading_state):
            ...

Thanks in advance!

I can see that the ‘loading_state’ property comes from dash-renderer that is not in use any more, right?

Is there a way that I could get the information about the loading state of a HTML component and change its style?
I read the docs:

However I am not able to update the style of the dcc from the CSS.

Any help would be appreciated :slight_smile:

Hello, is there any update on this? I am running into the same problem. Is there an alternative to using loading_state in order to trigger some behaviour in another component while it is loading?

Have you tried using the running prop? You can now use that in regular callbacks as of Dash 2.16
