Please don't waste my time arguing that splash screens are bad. It's all been hashed out before.
How am I supposed to force the splash screen to be visible? It's created and shown in applicationWillFinishLaunching. The app is document based. Other modal dialogs *could* appear and go away before the splash screen appears, so order is important. If a modal dlog *does* appear beforehand (e.g. registration), then the splash screen will display. If not, something is preventing the splash screen from showing. This got me thinking it was event manager related, so I added this after showing the splash screen: [[NSApplication sharedApplication] nextEventMatchingMask:NSAnyEventMask untilDate:nil inMode:NSDefaultRunLoopMode dequeue:NO]; That fixed it. Well, it fixed it until I tried launching the app and letting Cocoa restore documents that were open when I quit. Again, no splash screen. Why is this so hard to do? -- Steve Mills office: 952-818-3871 home: 952-401-6255 cell: 612-803-6157 _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
