I have an app that I use the IPleaseWaitService working fine when using Catel v 4.5.4, but when I updated to v 5.0.0, the IPleaseWaitService does not display the UpdateStatus and only displays a little spinner that doesn't go away on Hide (the only way to 'hide' the spinner is to use Pop). Additionally the views are not greyed out and not active like the previous version used to do.

Is there anything special that I have to do to implement the IPleaseWaitService with Catel 5.0.0? (nothing indicated in the documentation)

thanks

The PleaseWaitHelper (used for the WPF implementation) has been removed to simplify the code-base for Catel 5. See https://github.com/Catel/Catel/issues/1010 for more information>

The good news is that it's all open source so you can copy / paste the implementation of the PleaseWaitService from Catel 4.5 and use that one if you prefer it.

Another implementation you could look at can be found in Orchestra, where it embeds itself in the shell (at the bottom).
