Splashscreen does not appear

[NewsArchive]

Hi Friedrich,

perhaps it's just to hot today, but I can't find the reason, why my
splash screen does not appear. See attached screen shot for script and
error code.

Thanks again for your help.

<G> I have no idea.

But the Splash SCreen demo from the Examples Package definitely works :-)
See attached screenshot.

With a simple test script, it works here too...

I need your help for my "real" script.

sbevents.log seems not to be useful for this case...

Hi Friedrich,

there must be something wrong with my bmp file. This file is never
shown, other pictures are OK. But windows can show ot. The picture is
attached. Can you say me, what's wrong with it?

Thanks

And it also works with the "If File Exist" statement around the Splash
SCreen code. See attached.

Hi Friedrich,

the splash screen does not appear, if the bmp is write protected.

Is it possible to change that behaviour?

Thanks in advance.

Believe me, that was the last thing on my check list <g>. The ABSOLUTE LAST
thing! I checked the bitmap processing code, I checked the decompression
procedure, but I did not check the BMP file attribute <g>

Not sure why this read-only attribute can causes this. Item in review.

VERY GOOD FINDING!

Fixed! Thank you again for bringing this to my attention.
