PleasantSplashScreen

The overlay control rendered on top of PleasantWindow content during startup. Populated automatically from IPleasantSplashScreen — do not instantiate directly.

Usage

The splash screen is automatically created and displayed by the PleasantWindow when an IPleasantSplashScreen is provided:

public class MySplashScreen : IPleasantSplashScreen
{
    public IBrush? Background { get; } = new SolidColorBrush(Color.Parse("#2D2D2D"));
    public IImage? AppIcon { get; } = new Bitmap("Assets/icon.png");
    public string? AppName { get; } = "My Application";
    public object? SplashScreenContent { get; } = null;
}

// In your window
public class MyWindow : PleasantWindow
{
    public MyWindow()
    {
        SplashScreen = new MySplashScreen();
    }
}

Properties

Property	Type	Description
SplashScreen	IPleasantSplashScreen?	The IPleasantSplashScreen driving this control
AppName	string?	Application name displayed when no icon or custom content is set
AppIcon	IImage?	Image displayed in the splash screen
SplashContent	object?	Fully custom content — overrides icon and name

IPleasantSplashScreen interface

Implement this interface to provide splash screen data:

public interface IPleasantSplashScreen
{
    IBrush? Background { get; }
    IImage? AppIcon { get; }
    string? AppName { get; }
    object? SplashScreenContent { get; }
}

Custom content

Provide fully custom splash screen content:

public class CustomSplashScreen : IPleasantSplashScreen
{
    public IBrush? Background { get; } = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Blue);
    public IImage? AppIcon { get; } = null;
    public string? AppName { get; } = null;
    public object? SplashScreenContent { get; } = new StackPanel
    {
        Children =
        {
            new TextBlock { Text = "Loading...", FontSize = 24 },
            new ProgressBar { IsIndeterminate = true }
        }
    };
}

Priority

The splash screen displays content in the following priority order:

1. SplashScreenContent (if not null)
2. AppIcon (if not null)
3. AppName (if not null)

Background

The background is automatically set from the IPleasantSplashScreen.Background property:

public class MySplashScreen : IPleasantSplashScreen
{
    public IBrush? Background { get; } = new SolidColorBrush(Color.Parse("#1A1A2E"));
}

Notes

• This control is typically created and managed by PleasantWindow, not instantiated directly
• The control automatically populates its properties from the IPleasantSplashScreen when it changes
• Use IPleasantSplashScreen to define your splash screen appearance
