Splash screen using JWindow

HI ,
i had crated a splash screen using JWindow and made
JWindow.setVisible(true); during the loading time and then made
Jwindow.dispose(); after it gets loaded...
but it is not working a only a blank window is visible not its contents....what's wrong

hi!
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Insets;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JWindow;
import javax.swing.border.LineBorder;

public class TestJwindow
 public static void main(String[] args)
 JWindow loadWindow = new JWindow();
 JLabel lblLoad = new JLabel(" Loading..........");
 if(loadWindow.isVisible())
 loadWindow.dispose();
 else
 loadWindow.getContentPane().setBackground(Color.gray);
 lblLoad.setBorder(new LineBorder(Color.red, 3));
 lblLoad.setForeground(Color.white);
 loadWindow.add(lblLoad);
 loadWindow.setSize(150, 50);
 loadWindow.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
 loadWindow.setVisible(true);
}works fine with me..

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

Hi
thanks for taking the time, I don't know how to upload the fla so here is my code.
The code in the splashscreen MovieClip, which has a button called Play_btn is :
Play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playgame);
function playgame(e:Event):void
parent.removeChild(this);
Play_btn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playgame)
and the code in the main timeline is :

J2ME splash screen using alerts

Hi everyone,
I have used alerts before with no problem, but I am having probelms using them to create a welcome splash screen. The code I have used is below:
private void showSplashScreen(Display d)
     Image logo = null;
     try
     logo = Image.createImage("/images/logo.png");
     catch( IOException e )
               System.out.println(e);
     Alert splash = new Alert( "Advanced Predictive Text", "David Fowler", logo, null);
     splash.setTimeout(3000);
     d.setCurrent(splash, tb); // tb is a global variable
     System.out.println("Displayed splash screen");
The method is called on startup. The toolkit displays "Displayed splash screen", but nothing is shown on the emulator. If it's running the code why isn't the alert appearing? The textbox (tb) appears no probs!
Three days prior to my final year demo...please help!!!
Many thanks in advance,
David Fowler

try this...
private void showSplashScreen()
     Image logo = null;
     try
          logo = Image.createImage("/images/logo.png");
     catch( IOException e )
          System.out.println(e);
     Alert splash = new Alert("Advanced Predictive Text", "David Fowler", logo, null);
     splash.setTimeout(3000);
     Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(splash);
     System.out.println("Displayed splash screen");
}

Useful Code of the Day: Splash Screen & Busy Application

So you are making an Swing application. So what are two common things to do in it?
1) Display a splash screen.
2) Block user input when busy.
Enter AppFrame! It's a JFrame subclass which has a glass pane overlay option to block input (setBusy()). While "busy", it displays the system wait cursor.
It also supports display of a splash screen. There's a default splash screen if you don't provide a component to be the splash screen, and an initializer runner which takes a Runnable object. The Runnable object can then modify the splash screen component, for example to update a progress bar or text. See the main method for example usage.
It also has a method to center a component on another component (useful for dialogs) or center the component on the screen.
NOTE on setBusy: I do recall issues with the setBusy option to block input. I recall it having a problem on some Unix systems, but I can't remember the details offhand (sorry).

Multiple logons using same Logon Manager Splash Screen

I have an web application set up in Logon Manager where the user profile is set to login as a simple user with matching credentials. I also want the person to login to the same web page at the same login splash screen using different credentials as administrator. Can this be done. I am new to this so all help id welcomed.

Many questions, many answers. :-)
Yes, Rich, they would need to install the multiserver version
for you to see that Enterprise Manager option in the CF Admin. But
no, they would not need to uninstall the Server deployment (what
you did) to add the Multiserver deployment. They can co-exist
(though it's not something most would typically do).
The best news for you is that, yes, they can indeed just
setup a second site on their web server, and have that also point
to the one CF Server deployment you have installed. That is, of
course, assuming they run a web server that supports multiple
sites. If it's Apache, you're good. If it's Windows, then as long
as its Windows Server 2003 (or 2008, or Vista), you're good, too.
(Just for completeness, for other readers, XP does not let you run
more than one site at a time.)
If during the installation of CF you told it to have ALL
sites in the web server run with CF, you need do nothing more than
create the new site. It should immediately be able to run CF pages.
If instead you told it to only link CF to one site, then you'll
need to run the web server configuration tool again. You can do
that manually, even after the installation. See the CF Admin and
Config docs for more on that, as well as on this very question. (I
realize many like to just run stuff and hope that the interface is
clear enough, but as this question shows, for some things anyone
installing CF will be well-served by looking over that often-missed
manual.)
Hope that helps, Rich. It's not an RTFM answer. :-) Just
saying that if you need more than what I've said, it is in the
manual. Still, I'll be happy to answer follow ups if I can.

Only portrait splash screen (no landscape) for app

Is it possible for a DPS app created in App Builder to only have a portrait splash screen?
As in, our company does not want a landscape splash screen embedded.
Portrait splash screen could be rotated; however, this would add unnecessary size to the footprint of the download.

For my portrait-only apps I always create both splash screens, using rotated portrait as landscape.
The overhead on the app size is minimal, and not worth worrying about.

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.

Custom splash screen only shows up when command line is used...

Hi,
Everything in my Java web start application works perfectly but, the custom splash screen only shows up when command line is used ("C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin>javaws -verbose http://www.xxx.eu/AcSentVivresCrus/AcSentJnlp/AcSent.jnlp"), if I use the shortcut on the desktop or in the start menu, the Java 7 splash screen shows up (tested under Windows Vista and Seven). Does someone have any clues?
Thanks...

Hi again,
I made some researches :
- The link in the generated shorcuts ("C:\Windows\SysWOW64\javaws.exe -localfile -J-Djnlp.application.href=http://www.xxx.eu/AcSentVivresCrus/AcSentJnlp/AcSent.jnlp "C:\Users\Arnaud\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\46\69c1e9ee-1f252d1a") is not the same as the one I use in the command line ("C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin>javaws -verbose http://www.xxx.eu/AcSentVivresCrus/AcSentJnlp/AcSent.jnlp"). Is there a way in the the JNLP file to tell how to generate shortcuts (not the icon, etc., but command line options)?
- This sample (https://blogs.oracle.com/thejavatutorials/entry/changing_the_java_web_start) displays the splash screen when I click on the the generated shortcuts (I use Windows 7). I have copied the ButtonDemo jar file and the JNLP file on my IIS web server (Windows 2008 Server), this time the splash screen does not show up when I click the generated shortcuts but always shows up when I use the command line. Can someone tell me if it is a trouble with IIS ?
Thanks again...

When using Teststand, how do I prevent the LABView splash screen from appearing?

It comes up even if I have the "Don't show this screen" checked !

I'm excited to see TestStand is a celbrity product.
Typically when you run a sequence in TestStand, LabVIEW is launched by TestStand when the sequence contains steps that use the LV adapter. In this case LV is launched through its ActiveX interface and the LV splash screen is suppressed. This is in contrast to launching LabVIEW manually in which case the LV splash screen will be displayed.
In your case I'm not sure how LV is being launched. You might want to shut down LV and then run your sequence to see if the splash screen is then suppressed.
You may also want to read NI Knowledgebase article 28MEPUXL, "Why Does the LabVIEW Startup Screen Appear When Using the Dialog Box Function from Within My VI?". In this case LV has been opened manually and not be Test
Stand, such that the splash screen is not suppressed.

Splash screen says "System extension cannot be used The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/PulseDriver.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update. How to fix?

Please help!
After installing iTunes 11.0.1 I got a splash screen that appears after all updates. The screen reads:
System extension cannot be used
"The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/PulseDriver.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update."
Question: How do I re-install or replace this file?

I submitted the above question, later finding that it has been answered by Buller already. No one need reply as Buller's answer seems to solve the problem for others, and I'll try that.

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.

Using Splash screen WPA2 network

I was using Document 100787 as a guide.
1. I have 1252 & 1142 AP's connected to the Wism (6.0.188.0 code)
2. FWSM I have a 4402 (6.0.188.0 ) appliance connected as my anchor.
3. ACS is ver 4.2
All of my wireless networks function as expected. I see the successful auth in ACS. I just built a new WPA2 network and set it up to use Splash screen redirect. It doesn't seem to matter what I do it just wont work. IE or Mozilla.
Test 1 was to drop the users at the wism. There was no splash screen.
There was no evidence of my url-redirect in the wireshark trace.
Test 2 used the 4402 as my anchor point with the same results.
In both cases the client was authenticated and was able to navigate the internet and other duties. The problem is apon opening the broswer there is no redirect.
Any thoughts ?

I am not sure I understand what you are trying to accomplish. Typically you do not configure L2 encryption such as WPA/2 on web authentication SSIDs. This is because it is difficult to manage L2 encryption on networks intended for guest use or non domain users. If this SSID is for guest/non domain users I would use a PSK and provide that to end users if you need to use L2 encryption. If this is for domain users I would normally use 802.1x for authentication via EAP-TLS or PEAP.
