Splash Screen

The following parameters applies only if you are defining a native splash screen for a GUI application:

• Splash screen title. This is the title of the splash screen icon which appears in the taskbar when the splash screen is displayed. It should contain something meaningful such as "Loading <application name>..".
• Bitmap file. This is the bitmap file to be used for the splash screen. The file must be in BMP format. It should have a nice thick or 3D border to make it stand out from the screen. The resolution for the bitmap should be less than 640x480 (for maximum compatibility with different screen resolutions). If specified correctly, the bitmap should display in the preview box.
• How long should the splash screen be displayed? You can choose to display the splash screen for a fixed number of seconds, and/or have the splash screen removed as soon as the Java application displays its first window.
