Re: [e4-dev] e4 0.9 splash screen?


Sorry, by "possible" I meant "doesn't stutter and look bad" :)

Comments in bug thanks.

Re: [e4-dev] e4 0.9 splash screen?





All that aside, I gather from John that animation in the splash may not be technically possible (?).

Kevin, you can try the patch available in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=280462 : animating the splash is absolutely possible :)
I can try to rework my first attempt to make something closer from what's available at pond5.
On a side note, what would be an "ideal" length for the animation? ATM it is 3 seconds long, and looping on the last 2 secs until the app is totally started. If our animation kicks ass, we can envision to *not* close the splash if the workbench has finished starting up but the splash animation is not finished yet... Something like 15 sec is probably quite long anyway (at least I hope a vanilla e4 workbench will not take more than 15 seconds to be launched).

Cheers,
Ben
