Splash Screen in GTK

Question

I\'m new to GTK and i\'m using it to create UI in C. I\'ve created a splash screen and i\'m able to close it after specified seconds using the function g_timeout_add(100,

Answer 1

I've created a splashscreen header file which is shown below..

#include 

/* Close the splash screen */
gboolean close_screen(gpointer data)
{
  gtk_widget_destroy((GtkWidget*)data);
  gtk_main_quit ();
  return(FALSE);
}


int Show_Splash_Screen(char* image_name,int time,int width,int height)
{
  GtkWidget  *image, *window;
  window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
  gtk_widget_set_size_request (window, width, height);
  gtk_window_set_decorated(GTK_WINDOW (window), FALSE);
  gtk_window_set_position(GTK_WINDOW(window),GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER_ALWAYS);
  gtk_window_set_resizable(GTK_WINDOW(window), FALSE);
  image=gtk_image_new_from_file(image_name);
  gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(window), image);
  gtk_widget_show_all (window);
  g_timeout_add (time, close_screen, window);
  gtk_main ();
  return 0;
}

just include this file and to show a splash screen call the function Show_Splash_Screen("image_path",time_in_seconds,width_of_image_in_pixels,height_of_image_in_pixels);
