Snippet how to create a splashscreen with opacity and dynamic text.


In main.cpp:


QPixmap splashImage(":images/splash.png");
QPixmap splashMask(":images/splashmask.png");

customSplashScreen* splash = new customSplashScreen(splashImage);
splash->setMessageRect(QRect::QRect(7, 253, 415, 14), Qt::AlignCenter); // Setting the message position.

QFont splashFont;
splashFont.setFamily("Arial");
splashFont.setBold(true);
splashFont.setPixelSize(9);
splashFont.setStretch(125);

splash->setFont(splashFont);
splash->setMask(splashMask);
splash->setWindowFlags(Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint | Qt::SplashScreen);
splash->show();

/* To intercept mousclick to hide splash screen. Since the
splash screen is typically displayed before the event loop
has started running, it is necessary to periodically call. */
app.processEvents();

splash->showStatusMessage(QObject::tr("Initializing…"));

/* Some code here */

app.processEvents();

splash->showStatusMessage(QObject::tr("Loading something…"));


customSplashScreen.h:

    void setMessageRect(QRect rect, int alignment = Qt::AlignLeft);

    QString message;
    int alignement;
    QColor color;
    QRect rect;
