Two simple ptions (forgive me if they're too basic): *Your widgets to be activated are likely FocusWidgets: simply register them in a collection while you build your GUI and iterate over that to activate-deactivate them all
*Use a (modal, if you don't want the background to be clickable) PopupPanel or DialogBox with the load image you prefer: set a primary style name to the widget using setStylePrimaryName(String name), add that to your CSS and adust the CSS properties to have no border and a transparent background, then center() / hide() your popup before and after load. regards Lorenzo On Apr 24, 1:26 pm, tanteanni <tantea...@hotmail.com> wrote: > thx > > but i need complete deactivation of specific widgets - so this i have to do > "manually"?
