Hi,

I would like to know if it is possible to create a splash screen in a RAP
Application like in RCP.

I know in RCP, we have to use the configuration.product file to define it,
but it seems the mechanism is different on RAP.

By now I have created a standalone wiew within a perspective to display a
background image when the application is started. I still have to switch
automatically to the main perspective of the application.

Regards,

Cédric G;

Hi,

bringing the real splash screen concept to RAP is not yet possible.
An alternative solution would be to use the RAP branding
(org.eclipse.rap.ui.branding extension point) to customize the body of
the startpage by adding a new "splash" image to it.

Take a look at the RAP demo plugin which comes with the target how to
work with the branding extension point. Also see the RAP help for more
informations:

Hi,

Thanks for your answer.

Indeed, I have modified the body.html file and added some html code. It
works fine and the behavior is as I had expected :)

Regards,

Hi,

This approach is working, but the splash screen remains in the
background while the application is running (because it's still in the
body of the HTML). How do I make it disappear?

Robert
