How to Make Splash Screen?

Question

I’m developing an app for android using eclipse, in this app, when it starts, I needed to have a presentation screen (splash screen), I mean, a screen with my logo, then wait about 4 seconds, and go to login screen. There’s a way I can do that?

Answer 1

Yes, this "presentation screen" is called Splash Screen (like the Eclipse logo when you start it)

You can put the initial layout as the splash screen (fullscreen layout) and then use Sleep or something similar: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/concurrency/sleep.html https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3342651/how-can-i-delay-a-java-program-for-a-few-seconds

After 'sleeping', you can make the next line of code change layout to the main layout.
