|phoenix_title|  **wx.adv.SplashScreen**
==========================================================================================================================================

:ref:`wx.adv.SplashScreen`  shows a window with a thin border, displaying a bitmap describing your application.          

Show it in application initialisation, and then either explicitly destroy it or let it time-out. 

Example usage: 

::

        bitmap = wx.Bitmap('splash16.png', wx.BITMAP_TYPE_PNG)

        splash = wx.adv.SplashScreen(bitmap, wx.SPLASH_CENTRE_ON_SCREEN | wx.SPLASH_TIMEOUT,
                                     6000, None, -1, wx.DefaultPosition, wx.DefaultSize,
                                     wx.BORDER_SIMPLE | wx.STAY_ON_TOP)

        wx.Yield()

   **Possible constructors**::

       SplashScreen(bitmap, splashStyle, milliseconds, parent, id=ID_ANY,
                    pos=DefaultPosition, size=DefaultSize,
                    style=BORDER_SIMPLE|FRAME_NO_TASKBAR|STAY_ON_TOP)
       
   
   SplashScreen shows a window with a thin border, displaying a bitmap
   describing your application.



   .. method:: __init__(self, bitmap, splashStyle, milliseconds, parent, id=ID_ANY, pos=DefaultPosition, size=DefaultSize, style=BORDER_SIMPLE|FRAME_NO_TASKBAR|STAY_ON_TOP)

      - ``wx.adv.SPLASH_NO_CENTRE`` 
      - ``wx.adv.SPLASH_TIMEOUT`` 
      - ``wx.adv.SPLASH_NO_TIMEOUT`` 




      `milliseconds`  is the timeout in milliseconds.
