Hey there, I was following the beachball cursor post and decided to add a spinning daisy gif to my splash screen to compliment the status log that lets the user know what stage of initialization the program is in.
My splash screen presents a login and upon authenticating the actual splash comes up, checks for updates, then connects to a database using SQLYoga. I had made 2 handlers, one for starting and showing the gif, and one for stopping, hiding and resetting the gif's state. Everything works as it should until SQLYoga actual goes to connect to the database. At this point the gif animation freezes until the connection is successfully made. The rest of the processes for initialization are lightning fast so primarily the gif is for the wait on the connection to the db. Does anyone have any recommendations on how I could get the gif to play or emulate the gif frame by frame (familiar with the process the frame by frame loop entails, but wouldn't this also be blocked by the SQLYoga db_connect call? -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Gif-issues-tp3038619p3038619.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
