But you should get a visual clue that there actually is
just a single spinner, don't you? One could try to not
draw a "rubber band" when there's nothing selected but
that's all I could do (if I find the place, fdesign is
not the simplest program to understand;-)

Thanks, I see it also. No idea at the moment were this is
coming from. I will have a look but, due to the current
workload, I won't make promises when this will happen;-)

                  Thank you and best regards, Jens
