Is it possible to specify mask IDs when showing & hiding body masks while data loads? I'm asking as it seems like my body mask is being hidden by some other process before the process I want the mask to show for has completed, so it grants the user the ability to control the page before it's ready.
What I was thinking is that if the body mask was given some ID when shown using showBodyMask, only a hideBodyMask specifying that same ID would hide the body mask - any others doing the same may make their own body mask hidden, but if any of them still remained, you would still see the loading spinner. For some reason I seem to remember this being possible in Classic UI, but I can't remember exactly or find the examples.

It was possible to get the mask Id in classic (it is returned from MaskHelper.ShowBodyMask()), but I don't believe that had any impact on something else not hiding the mask. As far as I am aware, that was only used to get the mask so you could display or change the message (the Freedom UI mask doesn't have a message, only the spinner)

Makes sense, must have been mis-remembering then, cheers Ryan. Would be nice to be able to show & hide specific body masks, as sometimes there will be multiple sets of data loading in in parallel, with no guarantees of which will finish first/last.
