A widget showing a loading spinner.

.. image:: https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/libadwaita/doc/1-latest/spinner.png

The size of the spinner depends on the available size, never smaller than
16×16 pixels and never larger than 64×64 pixels.

Use the :obj:`~gi.repository.Gtk.Widget.props.halign` and :obj:`~gi.repository.Gtk.Widget.props.valign`
properties in combination with :obj:`~gi.repository.Gtk.Widget.props.width_request` and
:obj:`~gi.repository.Gtk.Widget.props.height_request` for fine sizing control.

For example, the following snippet shows the spinner at 48×48 pixels:


.. code-block:: xml
    :dedent:

    <object class="AdwSpinner">
      <property name="halign">center</property>
      <property name="valign">center</property>
      <property name="width-request">48</property>
      <property name="height-request">48</property>
    </object>

See :obj:`~gi.repository.Adw.SpinnerPaintable` for cases where using a widget is impractical or
impossible, such as :obj:`~gi.repository.Adw.StatusPage.props.paintable`\.
