Custom splashscreen with text

Snippet how to create a splashscreen with opacity and dynamic text: screencap

Example of main:

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:

#ifndef CUSTOMSPLASHSCREEN_H
#define CUSTOMSPLASHSCREEN_H

#include <QSplashScreen>
#include <QPainter>

class customSplashScreen
 :public QSplashScreen
{

public:
 customSplashScreen(const QPixmap& pixmap);
 ~customSplashScreen();
 virtual void drawContents(QPainter *painter);
 void showStatusMessage(const QString &message, const QColor &color = Qt::black);
 void setMessageRect(QRect rect, int alignment = Qt::AlignLeft);

private:
 QString message;
 int alignement;
 QColor color;
 QRect rect;
};

#endif // CUSTOMSPLASHSCREEN_H

customSplashScreen.cpp:

#include "customSplashScreen.h"

customSplashScreen::customSplashScreen(const QPixmap& pixmap)
{
 QSplashScreen::setPixmap(pixmap);
};

customSplashScreen::~customSplashScreen()
{
};

void customSplashScreen::drawContents(QPainter *painter)
{
 QPixmap textPix = QSplashScreen::pixmap();
 painter->setPen(this->color);

};

void customSplashScreen::showStatusMessage(const QString &message, const QColor &color)
{
 this->message = message;
 this->color = color;
 this->showMessage(this->message, this->alignement, this->color);
};

void customSplashScreen::setMessageRect(QRect rect, int alignement)
{
 this->rect = rect;
 this->alignement = alignement;
};
