Hi Jacques, thanks for the hint.
Showing a in-progress indicator is actually very ease. I have two forms. One for the creation of a object in an external system an one for the deletion. In the "creation"-form I add only the following line after the field with the name "submitButton": <on-event-update-area event-type="submit" area-id="page" area-target="externalObject"/> In the "deletion"-form I substitue the existing hyperlink: <hyperlink target="deleteExternalObject" description="${uiLabelMap.CommonDelete}" also-hidden="false" confirmation-message="${uiLabelMap.CommonConfirmDelete}" image-location="${iconsLocation}/delete.png"> <parameter param-name="externalObjectId"/> </hyperlink> with the following hyperlink. <hyperlink target="javascript:ajaxUpdateArea('page', 'deleteExternalObject', externalObjectId=${ externalObjectId }');" target-type="plain" request-confirmation="true" description="${uiLabelMap.CommonDelete}" also-hidden="false" confirmation-message="${uiLabelMap.CommonConfirmDelete}" image-location="${iconsLocation}/delete.png"> </hyperlink> To update the correct area afte the operation has finished, I define a new container with the id="page" surrounding the main-decorator in CommonScreens.xml of my component. I hope this explantion helps people having the same question. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Jacques Le Roux [mailto:jacques.le.r...@les7arts.com] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 28.
