Detailed Description

The QSplashScreen widget provides a splash screen that can be shown during application startup.

A splash screen is a widget which is displayed when an application is being started. Splash screens are often used for applications where the start up times is a bit long. This provides the user with feedback to indicate the application is loading.

The splash screen appears in the center of the screen. It may be useful to add the Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint to the splash widget's window flags if you want to keep it above all the other windows on the desktop. Some X11 window managers do not support the "stays on top" flag. A solution is to set up a timer which periodically calls raise() on the splash screen to simulate this effect.

The most common usage is to show a splash screen before the main widget is displayed. This is illustrated in the following code in which a splash screen is displayed and some initialization tasks are performed before the application's main window is shown.

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);
QPixmap pixmap(":/splash.png");
splash.show();
app.processEvents();
splash.finish(&window);
return app.exec();
}

The user can hide the splash screen by clicking on it with the mouse. Since the splash screen is typically displayed before the event loop has started running, it is necessary to periodically call QApplication::processEvents() to receive the mouse clicks.

It is sometimes useful to update the splash screen with messages, for example, announcing connections established or modules loaded as the application starts up.

QPixmap pixmap(":/splash.png");
splash->show();
// loading some items
splash->showMessage("Loaded modules");
qApp->processEvents();
// establishing connections
splash->showMessage("Established connections");
qApp->processEvents();

QSplashScreen supports this with the showMessage() function. If you wish to do your own drawing you can get a pointer to the pixmap used in the splash screen with pixmap(). Alternatively, you can subclass QSplashScreen and reimplement drawContents().

showMessage()

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QSplashScreen::QSplashScreen ( const QPixmap pixmap = QPixmap(),
Qt::WindowFlags  flags = Qt::EmptyFlag 
)
explicit

Construct a splash screen which displays the pixmap. There should be no need to set the widget flags except perhaps Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint.

QSplashScreen::QSplashScreen ( QWidget parent,
const QPixmap pixmap = QPixmap(),
Qt::WindowFlags  flags = Qt::EmptyFlag 
)

This method allows you to specify a parent for your splashscreen. The typical use for this constructor is if you have a multiple screens and prefer to have the splash screen on a different screen than your primary one. In that case pass the proper desktop() as the parent.

QSplashScreen::~QSplashScreen ( )
virtual

Destroys the current QSplashScreen object.

Method Documentation

void QSplashScreen::clearMessage ( )
slot

Removes the message being displayed on the splash screen.

See also
showMessage()
void QSplashScreen::drawContents ( QPainter painter)
protectedvirtual

Draw the contents of the splash screen using the given painter. The default implementation draws the message passed by showMessage(). Reimplement this method to control drawing on the splash screen.

bool QSplashScreen::event ( QEvent event)
overrideprotected

Reimplemented from QWidget::event()

void QSplashScreen::finish ( QWidget widget)

Makes the splash screen wait until the widget is displayed before calling close() on itself.

QString QSplashScreen::message ( ) const

Returns the message currently displayed on the splash screen.

See also
showMessage(), clearMessage()
void QSplashScreen::messageChanged ( const QString message)
signal

This signal is emitted when the message on the splash screen changes. message is the new message and is a null-string when the message has been removed.

See also
showMessage(), clearMessage()
void QSplashScreen::mousePressEvent ( QMouseEvent event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from QWidget::mousePressEvent()

const QPixmap QSplashScreen::pixmap ( ) const

Returns the pixmap that is used in the splash screen. The image does not have any of the text drawn by showMessage() calls.

See also
setPixmap()
void QSplashScreen::repaint ( )

This overrides QWidget::repaint(). It differs from the standard repaint function in that it also calls QApplication::flush() to ensure the updates are displayed, even when there is no event loop present.

void QSplashScreen::setPixmap ( const QPixmap pixmap)

Sets the pixmap that will be used as the splash screen's image to pixmap.

See also
pixmap()
void QSplashScreen::showMessage ( const QString message,
int  alignment = Qt::AlignLeft,
const QColor color = Qt::black 
)
slot

Draws the message text onto the splash screen with the given color and aligns the text according to the flags in alignment. To make sure the splash screen is repainted immediately, you can call QCoreApplication's processEvents() after the call to showMessage(). You usually want this to make sure that the message is kept up to date with what your application is doing (e.g., loading files).
