AdvancedSplash tries to reproduce the behavior of SplashScreen, but with
some enhancements (in my opinion).
AdvancedSplash starts its construction from a simple frame. Then, depending on
the options passed to it, it sets the frame shape accordingly to the image passed
as input. AdvancedSplash behaves somewhat like SplashScreen, and almost
all the methods available in SplashScreen are available also in
this module.
Sample usage:
import wx
import wx.lib.agw.advancedsplash as AS
app = wx.App(0)
frame = wx.Frame(None, -1, "AdvancedSplash Test")
imagePath = "my_splash_image.png"
bitmap = wx.Bitmap(imagePath, wx.BITMAP_TYPE_PNG)
shadow = wx.WHITE
splash = AS.AdvancedSplash(frame, bitmap=bitmap, timeout=5000,
agwStyle=AS.AS_TIMEOUT |
AS.AS_CENTER_ON_PARENT |
AS.AS_SHADOW_BITMAP,
shadowcolour=shadow)
app.MainLoop()
None of the options are strictly required (a part of the bitmap parameter).
If you use the defaults you get a very simple AdvancedSplash.
AdvancedSplash is customizable, and in particular you can set:
Whether you want to mask a colour or not in your input bitmap;
Where to center the splash screen (on screen, on parent or nowhere);
Whether it is a “timeout” splashscreen or not;
The time after which AdvancedSplash is destroyed (if it is a timeout splashscreen);
The (optional) text you wish to display;
The font, colour and position of the displayed text (optional).
This class supports the following window styles:
