Disable Essbase add-in splash screen

Hello, Does anyone know how to disable or suppress the Essbase add-in splash screen in Excel? Thanks

There's no way to disable the splash screen if you want to use the addin. However, when the splash screen pops up, if you put your mouse over the splash screen and single left click, it will close the splash screen. Still a pain, but you pick up approx 2 seconds <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> If you don't want to use the Essbase addin, then you can go with brentchoi's suggestion of making the addin inactive. HTH.

How to add a splash screen in a DwCS6 PhoneGap for Android build?

So I have the new Dw CS6 and want to see what great things DW can do in building Android Apps. So I follow the California Trails demo on Lynda.com. Build it in DreamWeaver, package it with Phonegap and it runs. However, there are some things I'm noticing that happen with this Phonegap that do not happen when I take the SAME files and place them in my Eclipse SDK and build the application under Eclipes.
1) There is a 5 to 9 second delay where a black screen is displayed after the app is launched and when it actually displays the index.html. How do I stop this from happening?
2) How do you add a splach screen? In Eclipes I would add the image to the drawables folders and modify my Activity.java file but we don't have these in DW.
3) How do I get an external URL to display within my Phonegap App? In Eclipes I make the call to the URL while in a WebView but there isn't anything like that in Dw or Phonegap.
4) How do I attach or reference my KeyStore file in these PhoneGap builds so I can put them on Google Play?
Maybe I'm asking too much of Dw and PhoneGap? It this release not intended to create a fully functional app or is it just suppose create a Pseudo App that in reality is a HTML5 webpage made to look like an app? I'm not judging or being critical just trying to find out how or if this Dw feature can be interated in to my workflow.

I assume that you want to show the splash page after every session is initiated after an authentication.
Try this:
Protect the app pages (/app1, /app2 etc) with the following authen scheme:
Level:1
Form:/login.html
Action:/dummy1
Passthrough:no
In the authentication success of this one, have an action:
Authentication success URL: /some_dummy_page.html
Now, protect this url /some_dummy_page.html with the following:
Level:2
Form:/splash_page.html
Action:/dummy2
Passthrough:no
When you access /app1 or /app2, then the first scheme will be invoked, login.html page will come. give your login and password, on successful authen, it will (try to) go to /some_dummy_page.html. but since this one is protected, it will show the splash_page.html. Click on ok, and it will POST to the /dummy2. Because the action in both the schemes are different, the obformlogin cookie will persist.
You will need to have the action in the splash page to point to /dummy2.
Hope this helps. Let us know.

How do I add a splash screen?

Hi,
I'm developing for the iPhone and I wish to know how to put a splash screen on my app. I think it would look better than the normal black loading screen.
Thanx for the help!

You need a file called Default.png, probably exactly the right size. And you also need an entry in a plist somewhere. the easiest thing to do is capture a screen in organizer, then click "Make Default Image" or whatever. Then you can edit that image.

How to disable PS Elements 10 splash screen?

I'm frustrated that I get this Welcome screen everytime I start Photoshop. How do I turn it off?
I just want to start editing, like in the full version.
I FOUND IT. For anyone wanting to do the same thing:
1. Do NOT go to the Edit/Preferences menu in Photoshop. Not there.
2. At the Welcome screen, click on the "settings" in the upper right corner.
3. Choose "Always Launch Photoshop Elements Editor only."
4. You are done.

Welcome to the forums, Tom.
Well, actually, that's one way, but the thing is that the welcome screen still runs background processes when you turn it off that way. Better to go into the program files and make desktop shortcuts to the editor and/or organizer in windows or make dock icons for OS X.

ADD Splash Screen to the SAP B1 DE Simple Installer.

can i add a Splash Screen to the SAP B1 DE Simple Installer ?
if yes how to do it.
when i deploy my addons i want the installer to accept an installation serial & install the addons only if the serial key entered in valid.
has someone done this thing before or can someone help me in doing this.
thanks in advance
Ketan Joshi

Hi Ketan,
You can add as many screens as you like in the simple installer. You only need to open the generated project and add you screen as the other steps already there. To desing your screen you only have to manage with .NET windows design.

Disable/skip hibernation splash screen?

Is there any way to disable the Hibernation splash screen, or make it so that it does not occupy the whole screen? I am using Spyware Terminator, and it asks for a "allow/disallow" decision when new software runs - I updated the Power Management software, and now when I go to hibernate, the splash screen obscures the allow/disallow dialog and the computer hangs, because it recognizes the new power management program as new. No problem if I disable Real-Time Protection. Any advice? As far as I can tell, I cannot manually specify the program to be ignored, and might be simpler to disable/skip the hibernation splash screen.
thank you.

This behavior was introduced by a security "fix" intended to prevent a DNS re-binding attack which permits unsigned applets to escape the applet sandbox. The "fix" was, imo, very poorly thought out. You think you have a problem with 1.5 megabits of applet jars, but I have 8 megabytes, hundreds of thousands of users, with lousy networks. So now I'm stuck with a colocation vendor. Imagine my chagrin when they changed *their* ISP and thus their IP addresses.
As far as I can see, signed applets are already permitted (if the user allows) to communicate outside the sandbox, so this "fix" should not have been applied to signed jars, only to unsigned ones. There are a couple of other techniques that Oracle might have used to prevent this attack, but they chose the simplest one, effectively preventing anyone from using the most common, inexpensive strategies for improving the availability of their web-based Java applications.

Splash screen for a desktop app (non mobile app)

I'm using fb4linux, 4.5.1A SDK, I'm developing a non-mobile (i.e. desktop application) and I would like to add a splash screen to it.
I've added mobilecomponents.swc to the library path, and the application starts like this:
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
 xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
 xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
 width="400" height="400" xmlns:local="*"
 preloader="spark.preloaders.SplashScreen"
 splashScreenImage="@Embed('assets/splashscreen.png')"
 splashScreenMinimumDisplayTime="1500">
When I debug it, no splash scren is shown and I get the following error:
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable flash.display::StageAspectRatio is not defined.
 at spark.preloaders::SplashScreen/prepareSplashScreen()[E:\dev\4.5.1\frameworks\projects\mobilecomponents\src\spark\preloaders\SplashScreen.as:340]
 at spark.preloaders::SplashScreen/Stage_resizeHandler()[E:\dev\4.5.1\frameworks\projects\mobilecomponents\src\spark\preloaders\SplashScreen.as:407]
The problem seems to be triggered by the line that sets the preloader, because if I remove it, the error is gone (although no splash screen is shown either).
Any ideas how to make it work?
Thanks!

import [install folder]\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.6\sdks\4.6.0\frameworks\libs\mobile to your build path
Note: You must add the frameworks\libs\mobile\mobilecomponents.swc to the library path of the application to support the splash screen in a desktop application.

How to create custom splash screen that shows loading %?

I'd like to add a splash screen to my app. that shows the loading as a percentage. I have flashbuilder 4.6. How can I do this?

You might need to consider adding your child elements in application manually. Displatch a new event back to the application when the child is created (from creationComplete) and update progress bar.

Removing Splash Screen using button in Movieclip

Hi
I have created a shooting game and I am struggling to create a splash screen at the beginning informing the user of
the controls with a button to start the game, which removes the splash screen. I am trying to add the splash screen in the main timeline
using addChild event. I can get the splash screen to appear on the game and remove it when the playgame button is pressed, but this
prevents all the other event listeners so I am not able to fire or move the ship.
In the splash screen I have the code :
Play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playgame)
function playgame(e:Event):void
Play_btn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playgame)
parent.removeChild(this);
and in the main timeline I have :
addChild(splashscreen);
Can anyone give me some guidance, thanks for reading this

and the code in the main timeline is :
//import some important flash libraries.

Essbase Add-in EssVConnect

Hello,
I am using EssVConnect function in excel macro.
Second parameter which is the username is set as default user in essbase add-in login screen at the client as last login user.
Declare Function EssVConnect Lib "ESSEXCLN.XLL" (ByVal sheetName As Variant, ByVal userName As Variant, ByVal password As Variant, ByVal server As Variant, ByVal application As Variant, ByVal database As Variant) As Long
can you suggest me a way to grab previous settings like username in this case and set it back after macro driven excel job is finished ?
Thanks,
Ahmet

Hi Rodrigo,
Thanks for your answer,
I am already using these parameters by reading cells.
But the question I ask related how to get and set the user name at the login dialog box of essbase add-in.
As it is changed when I use EssVConnect. I want to keep it same as original.
any idea?

Director 12 - splash screen for .dcr hosted on website

I need to add a splash screen to a Launcher.dcr that is embedded and hosted on a website.
Currently the Launcher.dcr is just a white rectangle with a green (Start) button on it.
When the user clicks the green (Start) button on the Launcher.dcr, it downloads and runs the Application.dcr.
This all works perfectly, but it doesn't look very good.
How do I add a splash background image (splash.jpeg) to the Launcher.dcr and how do I overlay a Start.jpeg image over the button?
Thank you

Once I opend one of my older files, the problem disappeared, even that I open the "problem files" after that.
It is really strange and I don't understand the reason. But whenever that "delay-problem" appears again, I just once open that special file, and the problem is gone. I just open and then close it, I even don't run it. It's magic.
It must contain something with "reparing effect". I checked the Xtras and some things, but I could not find an essential difference to my others app, as I always work the same style. My slight guess is, that it might have something to do with the "scriptExecutionStyle.
So I recommend this: Open old Director files, until the problem disappears. Okay, this is an unsatisfying solution, but it worked, whyever.

Creative EAX Splash Screen Star

I have read in several places about how to disable the Creative EAX Splash Screen upon each bootup. I am an opposite person who would like to ENABLE it. (I am using a 5.Li've! card). I once did have the CTEAX splash screen activated upon every bootup, but after a recent computer crash, I can not get it going again via the Demo32.exe - CTEAXSPL.dbd -"Load at Startup" box checked off.
My sound card drivers are all updated again following the computer crash. I did have a separate type of CTEAX startup splash screen problem when I updated Quicktime to version 7.02, but that problem is gone with the recent Quicktime 7.03 version.
I could be wrong, but I am guessing that the reason the startup splash screen will not activate upon startup with the three EAX "bong-bing-bong" sounds has something to do with a missing windows registry statement. I hope an easy fix exists.

Have you tried to just make a shortcut to it in your startup group?

Re: splash screen

Hello All:
I've decided to add a splash screen to a GUI app that I'm building.
However I'd like it to be Swing related if possible as opposed to AWT.
Does anyone know where or rather how I can start this.
I'm looking for two extremes of splash screens: a millisecond -- (dare I say) screen and a more conventional welcoming splash screen.
Any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Here some code, that can be used whenever a time consuming process is started:
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.border.*;
import java.awt.*;
* creates a splashscreen that runs a time consuming process
* in a separate thread, so that the splashscreen itself can be visualized properly
abstract class SplashScreen extends JWindow
* Constructor for a SplashScreen, that is located at the middle
* of the screen
* Shows a centered image above a message text
* Example:
* SplashScreen splash = new SplashScreen(..., ..., ...)
* public void timeConsuming()
* //insert the time consuming code here
* splash.start();
* @param component Parent component, the SplashScreen is positioned relative to it
* @param text Text that is shown at the SplashScreen
* @param image Image that is shown at the SplashScreen
public SplashScreen(Component component, String text, String image)
JPanel contentPane = new JPanel();
contentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
Border bd1 = BorderFactory.createBevelBorder(BevelBorder.RAISED);
Border bd2 = BorderFactory.createEtchedBorder();
Border bd3 = BorderFactory.createCompoundBorder(bd1, bd2);
((JPanel)contentPane).setBorder(bd3);
ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource(image));
contentPane.add("Center", new JLabel(icon, JLabel.CENTER));
contentPane.add("South", new JLabel(text, JLabel.CENTER));
          setContentPane(contentPane);
          setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
          pack();
          int screenWidth = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize().width;
          int screenHeight = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize().height;
          setLocation(screenWidth / 2 - getSize().width / 2, screenHeight / 2 - getSize().height / 2);
     * create an object of SplashScreen and override this method to include
     * the code that is needed to be splashscreened
     public abstract void timeConsuming();
     * sets the splashscreen visible, starts the time consuming code
     * and than disposes the splashscreen
     public void start()
          Thread t = new Thread()
               public void run()
                    Runnable r = new Runnable()
                         public void run()
                              timeConsuming();
                              dispose();
                    setVisible(true);
                    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(r);
          t.start();
}

Replacing the splash screen

I followed the instructions to add a splash screen and it doesn't work for some reason. I copied my gif image to $oracle_home/forms90/java. When I added the name of my .gif as splashScreen=mySplash.gif to the splash screen parameter in the webforms.cfg file, all that happened was the "Oracle 9iAS Forms Services" splash screen no longer appears on start-up. I thought mine would replace it. Any suggestions on what to try now?
Thanks,
Jeff
