One possibility is to draw an identical popup over the app when the app starts up.

I load a few things from the server after the application is running, and want that preloader to stick around until a specific result method has fired. I can't figure out how to do this - how to access the custom preloader from inside my application or how to fire an event to something the preloader has access too. I've spent a while on Jessie's blog, and a couple others, but still no joy. M@
