I have developed a Silverlight application. It has a button and once it is clicked the application starts doing something which takes time. Since everything in Silverlight is asynchronous the UI is not lagging, however, I would like to add some animation to it or something else to indicate that the application is actually doing some work and that the user should wait.

I don't know how to implement this, neither thread nor XAML wise. What is the best approach to this? Thanks.

Silverlight 4 wait/spinner control

Or if you are using MVVM

Generally Preferred Method for a 'Wait' Screen using MVVM and Silverlight

You can get the busy indicator control out of the Silverlight Toolkit:
