Discrepancy solved,
but may be wise to read this post completely.

What do I miss?
It's possible, to pull the preloader element to the page,
especially supposed to the HomePage (index).
It appears on the file tabs. Fine so far.
But - where is the beef?
No actions (parameterings) to see at all.
And also no code change detectable.
Shouldn't be there some dialog to specifify a gif, or at least something else?
But silencium prevales.
Where ist my misunderstanding?

I just have a vague idea about html and java, never learned it - until today when I turn 80.
But in fact I am a rather pretty dummy in that perspective.
OpenElemten compensates that, and that is very fine.
So, occasionally I need some help.
Please, enlight me. It can't be so hard.
Smile
Win-7/64.

I think it would be a nice idea to implement it in the Homepage
when it is required on slow internet lines, to fix a slow annoying loading process on the skitter content.
Would also be nice for the color page.

Elements appearing in the bar below the page tabs are invisible elements.

Look into the element Explorer in the left bottom corner, you will find Non Visual Elements.

Select Pre loader

Then on the right side of the screen you will find all editable parameters.

By the way you should pull a fresh copy of the element from my site, I just updated the property grouping.

Implementing it in those two pages would be a good idea.

Let me know once done.

Well, at least I think I made it. :-)
Thanks for help, and to put me on the bender.
Though, tapped on 3 issues.

1) there should be a selection of *no* gif or image (blank) - solved, but image retained for testing.
2) is there a possibility to position that symbol(gif) x/y- center?
3) as long as the page ist pulled/delivered from server, the preloader works fine,
but if the page ist taken from browser history (fireFox-70.9.1/64), it does not work.
Use shift-key-reload for simple testing. No shift key > preloader does not work.
Yes, I took the new updated version.

As Example: https://blumendigi.com/Farben/farben-wahl.htm
It will show just a small arbitrary image during that process.
I'll leave that page in this testing condition as long as required.
Pls, gimme a note.

The whole idea of this element is to display an animated gif file while loading the page to make sure that the visitor feels that something is happening.  Therefore a pre loader without an animation is useless.

The filter opacity is there to mask the page untill loaded.  If you put an 50% opacity you will see trough the filter your images loading then it will fade out allowing to work with the site once loaded.

Question: Is my assumption about the presence of the gif good?

Precisly ok :-)
The only thing, how to position that image in the center, or somehwere else?
That was the reason for asking for a blank image, because right now it seems to be positioned at the right border.
Else, a very good job. Thanks very much.
I whish, I could program java. It should not be too hard for me. Times will show. I have still plenty of time to spend.
At least I programmed MS-VisualStudio for 12 long years, VC, MFC, ... as freelancer.
A *.dll should be programmed in VC, usually.

Ok, I understand the issue.

I use to work with responsive sites therefore I centerred the gif by mesuring the window size.  I will have to review it to center it on the page width.

I will get back here once done.
