I'm trying to figure out how to seemlessly display my theme's gradient (or background image) right at the start of the load phase and all the way through initialization. In other words, I don't want the default theme during the load, with a visual "glitch" when my custom theme kicks in.
Here's what I've learned so far: - If you set the style on the app's "initialize" or "preinitialize", those changes aren't visible during the app's loading phase, so you end up getting the default theme until the loading is complete. - The backgroundColor property takes effect right at the start of loading, but backgroundGradientColors (to get a nice gradient during the load) doesn't seem to work. - The backgroundImage property will display an image after about 1 second (into the load), but the image doesn't fill the window (i.e. it isn't scaled) until after the load. Anyone have any ideas?
