Hello! I’m having a series of images which are fetched as Base64 string and converted into an image for UX use. Now my issue is that it takes some seconds to get all of these images through the internet so the layout is mostly white/blank until they pop up. Now I’m just wondering if there’s any way I could have an image from Assets/ to take these images’ place while downloading the actual images like a placeholder. Thanks in advance! ---
