In a plotly dash app, how to show a default text value in a div upon each click (on a dropdown, or button, etc) until the div is populated?

So, what I want is, every time a value is clicked on the dropdown menu, it should show something like “Calculating…” or “Loading…” for those 5-10 seconds until the figure is displayed.

This isn’t really possible right now. You can global level loading state with 📣 Dash Loading States, but we’re looking to add support for per-component loading states in A Flexible "Loading Status" API for Component Authors · Issue #267 · plotly/dash · GitHub
