loaderType String (default: "loadingPanel")

Defines what loader will be used while loading the data. Possible values are:

• "loadingPanel" - a panel with a circular loading indicator.
• "skeleton" - a skeleton enabled loader.

A pageSize must be defined for the skeleton loader type to work properly.

Example - set the loaderType

<div id="grid"></div>
<script>
  $("#grid").kendoGrid({
    columns: [
      { field: "ShipName" },
      { field: "ShipCity" }
    ],
    dataSource: {
      type: "odata",
      transport: {
        read: "https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/service/Northwind.svc/Orders"
      },
      schema: {
        model: {
          fields: {
            ShipName: { type: "string" },
            ShipCity: { type: "string" }
          }
        }
      },
      pageSize: 20,
      serverPaging: true
    },
    loaderType: "skeleton"
  });
</script>
