Overview[edit | edit source]
A splash screen is a widget that is usually displayed when an application is being started. Splash screens are often used for applications that have long start up times (e.g. database or networking applications that take time to establish connections) to provide the user with feedback that the application is loading. The splash screen may usually appear in the center of the screen.
