Show splash screen for x amount of seconds

Is there a better way to show a splash screen for x seconds than putting it in a while loop? It just seems so inefficiant and it uses a lot of processing power. This is what I have: long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
while(System.getCurrentTimeMillis() <= startTime + 5000) {
    //wait
mainPage.setVisible(true);

javax.swing.Timer.

  • Lightroom won't boot -I only get the splash screen for a second.

    I do have the photographers version of the Creative Cloud which included Photoshop CC 2014 and Lightroom. Everything was working just fine until I upgraded to Lightroom version 5.6. Now when I try to load LR, the slash screen shows for a second then disappears and LR does not load. This occurs on both my Mac (a Mac Pro and a iMac). I uninstalled LR and had creative cloud reinstall but still the same thing is happening  - Splash screen for a second then nothing. Again, this is happening on both Mac's. Photoshop CC 2014 I working just fine.
    Before I call Adobe, any ideas here on this issue. BTW, Creative Cloud App states LR in up to date and installed.
    Thanks

  • Iphone 3gs shows white screen for a second and reboots.

    While I play games, watch videos or do anything, the iphone displays a totally white screen for less than a second and then it reboots. After this it starts normally and then this all happens again after about 10-20 mins.
    Plz give me any suggestions to fix it. What is the problem? any hardware prob??

    Hello, noyz23il.
    I would agree that this is a unique issue.  I have attached an article that goes over basic troubleshooting that may help.  In this article, see the sections referring to display, camera and blank white screen.  If this does not resolve the issue, please see the last section regarding "issue not resolved".

  • Getting increasingly frequent system shutdown with appearance of the apple splash screen for several minutes then back to logon in the middle of using a variety of APPs or just walking on Safari.

    Using an IPAD 2 running 5.0.1 is frequently shutting down in the middle of a variety of Apps and showing the Apple splash screen for several minutes. This happens occasionally at inopportune times. Once the splash screen clears it goes back to the logon screen and the App that was open is closed. Has anyone else encountered this? Is there a resolution?

    I don't think that there is ever a good time for this to occur.
    What do you mean the Apple splash screen? You see the Apple logo on the screen?
    It appears as though your apps are crashing. Have you tried quitting apps and restarting? Reset the iPad?
    Quit all apps and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Excel 2013 stalling at splash screen for files in use by others

    Excel 2013 is stalling (and not opening) when trying to open a file that is in use by another user. In office 2010 it would prompt the user to open in read-only mode, but in 2013 it seems to just stall and never open. It just stays on the splash screen
    for ever. We have done some testing and it appears that double clicking on an excel file causes this to occur, but will function correctly if the file is opened through excel's file browser.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?  It's a pain to make
    all the users open excel first, then browse through a lengthy network location.  Thanks in advance!
    For information purposes: these are files on a network location shared by many users.

    Hi,
    Did the issue occur when you just installed the Office 2013 or after using Office 2013 sometimes? I recommend we try the following methods and test to check if they are helpful.
    1. Click the File tab>Options>Advanced>scroll down to the General section>Clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) check box in the General area.
    2. Install the latest Cumulative Update for Excel
    3. Right click on the Start Button>Click 'Open Windows Explorer'> click Organize > Layout> Uncheck Details Pane and Preview Pane.
    On a Windows menu, click on Tools > Folder Options.  In the box that opens up, click on the View tab.  Scroll down the list to “Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items” and clear the checkbox and then click OK.
    4. Check/Disable the Excel add-ins
    5. Repair Office.
    Hope it's helpful.

  • Creating a splash screen for your app.

    Im trying to create a splash screen for my app but im not too sure how it's done.
    Im using the following piece of code.
    public static void main(String[] args)
              JPanel display = new JPanel();
              display.setPreferredSize(new Dimension( (300), (200) ));
              display.setBackground(Color.white);
                   // I WILL PUT AN IMAGE ICON ON A JLABEL HERE              
              display.setVisible(true);
                   // I WILL NEED A DELAY HERE
              test.instance();
    }The problem I am having is that the JPanel is not being displayed. I will also need a way to create a delay, I know that I can't just use Thread.sleep(5000); because the JPanel will require the thread to be running in order to display the panel.
    Does anyone know how I could get my JPanel to display and somehow insert a delay before test.instance();?
    Thanks.

    I made my own a few days before for a database program. It can be easily done with Threads.
    I recommend you create a new class to be used as the spalsh screen , it has to extends JFrame and implements Runnable.
    I ll give you an example. I used the spash screen to display the screen and also to laod the main GUI form so that when the spash screen dispose, the main GUI form displays instantly, making the user think that the application loads faster.
    public void run ()
            try
                 this.setVisible(true);
                 Thread.sleep(2000);
                 // sets the menu visible before disposing
                 guiMenu.setVisible(true);
                 // disposes the object and returns the resources to the OS
                 this.dispose();
            catch(InterruptedException exception)
                exception.printStackTrace();
    // this method must be implement in the class
    // that implements Runnable interface
    //MAIN
    public class Main
        public static void main(String[] args)
            Menu menu = new Menu();
            SplashScreen introScreen = new SplashScreen(menu);
            ExecutorService splashExecutor= Executors.newFixedThreadPool(1);
            splashExecutor.execute(introScreen);       
    }ExecutorService is a subinterface of Executor that declares methods for managing the threads. It also has the method execute (that provides the Executor interface) which when invoked calls the method public void run() of the argument class that must implement Runnable.
    Executors.newFixedThreadPool(1); creates a poll consisting of a 1 thread which is been used by splashExecutor to execute the Runnable.
    Hope i've been of some assistance!

  • OpenSUSE-inspired splash screen for GIMP

    I saw this (old) openSUSE splash screen for GIMP and quite liked it:
    And so I created a new version of it, using Inkscape.  The PNG splash screen should be placed in $HOME/.gimp-2.6/splashes/ (or .gimp-2.7/ if you're using gimp-devel).  The font used is FifthLeg, which is based upon the font used in the openSUSE splash, and can be found in the AUR under otf-fifthleg: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=23740.
    The quick install (original version):
    mkdir -p $HOME/.gimp-2.8/splashes
    wget http://oi43.tinypic.com/s33fo9.jpg -O $HOME/.gimp-2.8/splashes/gimp-splash.png
    Here is the SVG file, in case you want to scale it up/down or change anything for your usage:
    http://www.mdn.fm/files/100696_f4f0h/gimp-splash.svg
    Screenshot:
    EDIT: Switched image hosting from ImageShack to TinyPic ... ImageShack has been very unreliable in the past few years.
    EDIT: Updated links (TinyPic is forcing the extension to JPG for whatever reason, but the file itself is a PNG). SVG link is dead.

    Yes, I appreciate the irony there.  I wanted it to be easily scalable, and I didn't want to make some gigantic XCF.
    That and, I wanted to learn a little more about Inkscape.  The combination of the two (GIMP, Inkscape) is outstanding.

  • T450s startup takes 35 seconds before showing splash screen. (11 sec wake-up)

    The follwing are my problems:1. When starting up the machine, it takes about 35 seconds before the first screen activity appears (Lenovo splash screen). After that it boots quite normal.
    2. When waking out of sleep mode it takes 11 seconds before I see the power led stopping to "breath" and the screen wakes up.
    It feels like this is a hardware/bios related issue, as (so far I know) hdd/ssd is only accessed after the bios has loaded and has finished its hardware checks. When sticking in a bootable usb it only starts flickering after the bios had loaded on screen.
    Question:
    Does anyone has an idea why my laptop is waiting so long to boot or to wake up? I don't mind waiting a bit, but waiting for 35 seconds + the normal boot time is really annoying. Specially with the fact that the laptop doesn't show any sign of live for 35 seconds after briefly lighting up the keyboard backlights. The wake-up delay is also very annoying since even my 7 year old BSOD laptop wakes-up faster, and I'm using sleep mode a lot.
    Some origins that I'm thinking about:
    - Hardware check during initial hardware startup does not yet recognize a dedicated GPU card. (POST: Power On Self Test)
    - I don't think this is a problem with my software since the problems occurs before reading any media.
    Things I tryed already:
    - Reset bios.
    - Start in legacy mode.
    - Bios update
    - rebuilding MBR (although I don't expect this to be the problem.)
    - Refreshing windows installation although I don't expect this to be the problem.)
    This problem was already at the beginning (with origenal hardware):
    From the first time I started the laptop (so even with the HDD) I noticed it took quite long to start. I remember pressing the ON/OFF button multiple times and thinking I did something wrong, when suddenly the "Lenovo" splash screen appeared.
    I hope someone can help me!

    My problems have been solved! An engineer contacted me that they have recieved a spare mainboard and they wanted to make an appointment. I gave them the adress where I worked the next day since I'm very mobile, and the next day an engineer came by. He seemed like a skilled IBM engineer and tested my machine and came to the same conclusion as me. He then did a few tests to see if the problem was caused by something else then the mainboard but ended by replacing my mainboard with good care. After the replacement the the boot and wake-up time was normal like it should be. I'm very pleased by the service Lenovo ThinkPad has given me. I need to add that when I called for support I got someone on the line that could not really understand me, neighter dutch or english. But that was also duo a bad connection it seemed.. But after that call I did not really expect this would come to a good end. I was then really suppriced that 5 day's later a dutch engineer manager called me to make a appointment. 

  • Iphone 3g shows Apple screen for a few seconds then shuts down

    Hey everyone, I've searched all over for a fix for this, but can't seem to find anyone who has had this problem answered. I was away for a while and didn't use my phone, when I got home today it froze up two or three times, so I put it into recovery mode and went through the normal steps of restoring from my last backup no problem. The phone seemed to backup fine and got was syncing my music/photos/etc. and I decided to go for a run. I came back 45 minutes later and it was shut down and not doing anything. When I went to restart it the black and white Apple logo screen popped up like normal for about 15-20 seconds then it shut down. It continues to do this no matter what I try. The only issue I can think of is that the battery was really low when I plugged it in for the restore, but it made it to the sync portion without a problem, so I'd assume it should have been charging.
    I've gone through all the recovery/restore steps I can find on the net. I've tried removing itunes from my computer and reloading it, both just with the application only and then all the correlating files. I've tried restarting about 15 times, plugging into different USB ports and even using my brother's powerbook to restore it. When I plug it in it recognizes that it's plugged in and the boot screen comes up, but it shuts down before it's recognized by itunes.
    Has anyone had this problem and overcome it? Does anyone have any input other then referring me to this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 or trying to put it into DFU? It's out of warranty and if at all possible I'd rather not buy a new one. Thanks in advance for your help.

    I guess, putting it in recovery mode and restoring it "as new phone" is your only chance if you can make it. Restoring from a backup may copy corrupt files back to your phone, causing this problem.

  • Looking for a Splash screen for desktop login

    Thats it, I have been looking for a splash screen application that can make a splash appear since my login begins with SLIM and that disappears once all startup applications have been loaded.
    I tried plymouth, but I think it cannot be used for this purpose.
    Any recommendation for this? Thanks.

    Do you mean you want a splash screen from the time when you complete logging in with Slim to the time the desktop has finished loading? If that is taking more than just a few seconds then I suggest you change desktops to something lighterweight. Mine takes about 2 seconds (wmii) - not even enough time for a splash scree!. Are you using KDE or Gnome because I believe you can set a startup splash with both those DE's . Check their documentation. Also, show us your ~/.xinitrc .

  • [kernel] gensplash framebuffer boot splash screens for 2.6.x

    coming very, very soon....
    if you haven't already, patch a kernel for fbsplash.  i've got 2.6.10 with -nitro2 running just fine, you can grab my PKGBUILD and the patch here - start with the usual Arch config.
    i have a complete splashutils PKGBUILD with added extras including scripts and sample configs. PLUS I have created initscripts patches for fbsplash and fbsplash/bkgdDaemon combined...and yes, i do have the silent progress bar working...
    MWAHAHAHAHA - it's alive!

    After much blood, sweat and tears (not too mention annoying comments from my girlfriend) I have finally managed to patch initscripts to work with silent gensplash! Better late than never, eh?  I had some major headaches with this but I wanted to save it till it was completely ready.
    So, here's the deal and the files - all stored here http://dtw.jiwe.org/share/gensplash
    with a whole bunch of gensplash showcase pics here
    First you need a patched kernel - I am using 2.6.10 and nitro2 - it works great - see the wiki on how to do that.  I have a PKGBUILD and patch file on my server too.
    Then you need a splashutils package - there are several about on the forums but I hope mine will provide everything you might need.  Splashutils needs to link to your patched kernel source when you build it - so my PKGBUILD allows this.  The PKGBUILD also uses a pack i put together containing some handy bits for gensplash.  This includes examples for lilo and grub, a splash rc.d script to start the backgrounds on the virtual terminals (and a config file to support this), and it includes three themes: the ArchPool theme, ArchMetal (created by me but credit to the Arch wallpaper author tho!) and the emergence gentoo theme (which is a bit crap to be honest).
    You can use the PKGBUILD and the gensplash-files pack to build splashutils.
    Pre-built packages of both splashutils, initscripts-custom and initscripts-gensplash (see below) are in my repo – they should work perfectly but YMMV!
    When you install splashutils you should get a handy introduction from the install script.
    If you want to use silent splash you'll also need to patch your initscripts.  You can use splashutils quite happily to add a verbose boot screen and vc backgrounds if you don't want to mess with your initscripts.  I have a neat PKGBUILD which will grab and patch the latest initscripts from the current repo if you do - this one is for initscripts-gensplash

    If you do want silent splash (you do – that's what all this work is for) i have 2 patches for this - the first simply patches for gensplash (initscripts-gensplash), the second patches for gensplash and the bkgdDaemons patch (combo-plus).  The old initscripts-bootsplash patch is there for completeness and reference too
    The patched initscripts allow you to run silent bootsplash and drop to verbose should errors (fails) occur.  This can be overridden by an option has been added to rc.conf – however, it will ALWAYS drop to verbose if the fs check fails – at least it should – I don't know how to test that.
    As I said the drop option has currently been added to rc.conf but the alternative is to use the conf.d/splash config file from the splashutil pkg (which is already set up to allow this).  I would like feedback on this, for and against, whether you intend to us the package or not.  Here is the way I see it:
    FOR using rc.conf
    You control the majority of boot options from rc.conf – this is a boot option
    rc.conf is already sourced by the scripts by default
    rc.conf is part of the initscripts package
    AGAINST rc.conf
    It is the main config file – do we want to pollute it with extraneous commands for eye candy?
    FOR using conf.d/splash
    It's not rc.conf – it is a gensplash related option in a dedicated gensplash config file
    AGAINST using conf.d/splash
    This file is not actually used for any config options that relate to boot (except to pre-empt a switch ), only for setting backgrounds on virtual consoles
    This file is not part of the initscripts package – although my initscripts obviously depend on apps in splashutils (won't work without it) – cross dependent configs seem dodgy.
    We have to source an extra file in the scripts
    I have also separately packaged the ArchPool and ArchMetal themes but I will have to upload them later because I forgot them today
    Problems and Bugs
    I am having MAJOR problems with the splash rc.d script.  It uses the conf.d/splash config file fine but i still CANNOT get it to work at boot BEFORE i log in - it works fine after - ideas PLEASE!
    It now also seems to cause similar overlay problems to that are described in bug 2 below – with SOME themes you get a persistent progress bar on your vc after the boot process is finished and it seems to affect different themes depending on when you run the script in your daemons array – am baffled – it needs serious work! Bug 2 and this maybe related...more testing needed!
    Last but not least - the bkgdDaemons patch.  If we background a daemon how do we know if it failed or not?  Has anyone thought of that?  My initscripts consider a background daemon BKGD to be DONE for the purposes of displaying the progress bar although the bkgdDaemons patch functionality remains identical and BKGD still shows in verbose.  If a BKGD daemon fails, this maybe as late as after login for DHCP failures, for example, we'll never know until we try to use the network.
    Bugs
    1. When udev starts you get message saying can't open /dev/fb0 and /dev/fbsplash for reading – no apparent ill effects tho? [FIXED]
    2. If you switch to verbose with F2 at a very specific point – during the fs check I think – the background MIGHT corrupt a tiny bit as the verbose overlays the silent (correctly) but then when the fs check finishes I think it still thinks it is in silent mode (due to the mode being passed to it when it starts to execute) and overlays silent again – only for the next rc script to overlay verbose (again correctly).  It's hardly terrible but someone might like to have a look – I can't be bothered right now as there is very little need to switch to verbose with F2 (cos it does it automatically on errors) and you do have to do it at just the right second to get the problem!  Feel free to check it out tho.
    TODO:
    1) workaround the current symlink workaround – DONE (don't ask it was awful)
    2) figure out how to drop out of silent if errors occur at startup - DONE
    3) fix that f**king rc.d script – - SOMETIMES WORKS SOMETIMES NOT -SETTING IT AS THE LAST DAEMON SEEMS TO HELP
    4) investigate the bugs - DONE
    5) enable silent splash in ArchMetal – DONE

  • Custom Splash Screen for HTML Export?

    We're finding our customers are getting confused with the HTML screen that initally displays a single button to play our Captivate lessons. Is there any way inside Captivate to add some context to that screen?
    TIA

    Hello,
    I read your postings here and I did what you proposed.
    Nevertheless the splash screen doesn't show up.
