The gtk:spinner widget displays an icon size spinning animation.

Figure: GtkSpinner

It is often used as an alternative to the gtk:progress-bar widget for displaying indefinite activity, instead of actual progress.

To start the animation, use the gtk:spinner-start function, to stop it use the gtk:spinner-stop function. The gtk:spinner implementation has a single CSS node with the name spinner. When the animation is active, the :checked pseudoclass is added to this node.
