sticky splash screen
Hello all, The splash screen that show up at the start of TB is quite nice, but not quite nice enough to stay there for as long as it does ;-) Is there anyway to cut it short? -- Regards, Ochrid _ The Bat! v 2.0 beta/1 op Windows XP _ Current version is 1.62r | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Add /NOLOGO to the command line that loads The Bat! For example: C:\Program Files\The Bat!\thebat.exe /NOLOGO This works for v1 and, I assume, for v2. -- ... Hugh T.

Regarding The Bat's splash screen, at 1:49 PM on 8/23/2003, Ochrid typed ... O Is there anyway to cut it short? Click it and it flies away. (I didn't know that until now, but I thought I'd give it a try. This is a scary thought, but I'm beginning to think like a TB programmer: If you think the program should do something, it probably does; you just have to find it.) I usually just press Alt-F2 and TB starts checking for mail while the splash screen is still there. -- Bill Blinn Technology Editor [EMAIL PROTECTED] - 8/23/2003 at 3:55 PM William Blinn Communications, Columbus, Ohio Direct: 614-785-9359 614-324-7818 Cell: 614-893-4151 Fax: 877-870-4892 Random thought: I'm gonna live forever, or die trying. -- Joseph Heller in Catch 22 Featured speaker at PowerPoint Live - Tucson, Arizona October 12-15, 2003 - http://www.pptlive.com/ Current version is 1.62r | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I am now using beta 2.0. -- Regards, Ochrid _ The Bat! vs 2.0 op Windows XP _ Current version is 1.62r | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hello Hugh, Saturday, August 23, 2003, 8:36:34 PM, you wrote: HTH This works for v1 and, I assume, for v2. Yes, it does. I first thought it didn't, but that was because I had attached the short cut to the Menu Start (using Win XP). With a fresh short cut the 'nologo' it works. However, now that I know the rather nice screen can be clicked away quickly, I'll leave in place. Thank you all for your help. -- Regards, Ochrid _ The Bat! vs 2.0 op Windows XP _ Current version is 1.62r | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
