What are the dimensions and location of the loading circle for the splash screen in Windows 11? Display is 2240x1400 #97

I want to incorporate it into my splash screen design somehow. Also, is there any reason I shouldn't be using a full size image, i.e. 2240x1400?

Closest estimate I've been able to get right now is 60x60 with the top left at around (1090, 1060). To get more precise I'll need to make some finer and finer test images I guess.

You can use whatever size you want for the splash screen: I've seen people use pictures that cover their entire screen.

That's what I'm planning on, I just want to know what area of the screen is taken up by the loading circle so that my splash screen doesn't just have a random black square in the middle of it, I want it incorporated somehow into the design.

I don't know the position of the spinner, and it has really nothing to do with this software. It's easy to find out, just create an image with easily countable pattern (such as the XOR texture) and take a picture during boot.

As for the resolution, just remember that the resolution is sometimes lower during boot. Also, some people have reported problems with big files.
