Hi group,
When my app icon is clicked , a black screen is displayed for a split
second before my main activity comes to foreground .After goggling i
found out to use Theme to avoid back screen or jarring effect .It
worked out fine.Here i can display the background of my home screen
for that split second
mainfest.xml
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:theme="@style/Theme.LoadingPage">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
under theme.xml
<resources>
<style name="Theme.LoadingPage" parent="android:Theme">
<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/
background_loading</item>
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
<style name="Theme.A1LoadingPage" parent="android:Theme">
<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/a1_loading</
item>
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
</resource>
under res/drawable/background_loading.xml
<bitmap xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
android:src="@drawable/home_screen"
android:tileMode="repeat" />
But my problem is i wanted to do the same for other activity apart
from main activity ,but i couldn't get the desired result.For
explanation , considered i started an Activity A1 on a button click
from Main Activity screen.It takes few seconds for the activity A1 to
appear.I need to display the background screen of Activity A1 as soon
as the button is clicked, this is just to fill the intermittent time
gap before A1 actually gets displayed ,thus avoiding a standstill
kind of appearance to the user . And i tried in vain .I wonder why the
same that has worked on launch main activity is not working with
other activities
<activity android:name="xx.com.A1"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:theme="@style/Theme.A1LoadingPage">
Note: I have used Threads and Handlers in activity A1 to reduce the
load on onCreate.
Please help me to find a correct solution.
