How to indicate openEMR tab is loading/reloading

7.0.2 patch 1. Windows/xampp/Edge

Hi. Not sure if anything has changed recently, but when I hover over the refresh symbol in the openEMR tab name region, I previously would see a url show at the bottom left of my browser, and if I clicked refresh, the url would persist until the page is reloaded. This was quite helpful to see in tabs that take a while to reload, such as the clinical reminder details tab, which takes 5-10 seconds to reload. Now, that url no longer shows, so I have no way to know when the reload is complete. On some tabs, such as patient finder, there is an animated display indicating the content is being reloaded. (For patient finder, the animation is inside the list of patients, and not a tab-level feature I believe). Is there a generic way to get all tabs to show an animation, or some indicator, when they are reloading? I would think a short piece of code inserted in the right place could make this happen. Ideas? Thanks
