Creating a frame that only displays for a while and delete itself Topic is solved

[abhilekh_gautam]

Hi there, I want my app to have a frame that displays my app name and logo and disappear after few seconds and I call it landingFrame

Code: Select all

   #include "landingframe.h"
   #include "optionframe.h"
   #include <wx/wx.h>
   
      landingFrame :: landingFrame(const wxString& title = "")
       :wxFrame(nullptr, wxID_ANY,title, wxDefaultPosition, wxDefaultSize, wxMAXIMIZE){
  
       wxImage::AddHandler(new wxPNGHandler);
       wxStaticBitmap* logo = new wxStaticBitmap(this, wxID_ANY, wxBitmap("presplash.png"), wxDefaultPosition);
       wxBoxSizer* logo_container = new wxBoxSizer(wxVERTICAL);
  
       logo_container->AddStretchSpacer(1);
       logo_container->Add(logo, 0, wxALIGN_CENTER | wxALIGN_CENTER_HORIZONTAL);
       logo_container->AddStretchSpacer(1);
  
     SetSizerAndFit(logo_container);
  }

And I have another frame which should be my parent frame which is optionframe

so I defined OnInit as

Code: Select all

  bool myapp:: OnInit(){
    landingFrame* frame = new landingFrame ("");
    optionFrame* options = new optionFrame("");
  
   frame->Show(true);
   SetTopWindow(frame);
   sleep(5);
   delete frame;
   options->Show(true);
   SetTopWindow(options);
   return true;
  }

But I only get a single frame which is optionFrame

Hi,
Check the "splash" sample and wxSplashScreen class.

Thank you.
