Splash/Loading screen for the first launch #24

Open ardovic opened 6 years ago

ardovic commented 6 years ago

As you know, our app is loading city/country data from file to SQLite database on first launch. This takes few seconds and currently it appears to the user as a white screen.

I suggest we add another content view before this long process (a splash screen) which will tell the user that (1) this loading is only for a single time, (2) our applications name: "Open Weather Android", (3) some weather related background, and (4) Android OSC (Open Source Community) logo with text.

Logo for Android OSC is below: android-osc-logo

What size should it have?

ardovic commented 6 years ago

Hi, it should be fullscreen content view. This is a bit programmer task, the size will dynamically change, adjusting itself to device screen size.

If you want to do only the designer work, you can work on a 1280 x 720 pixel screen. You can design the screen, export images in .png and someone else will do the programming work.

I can do something nice in Gif version too, can it work?

ardovic commented 6 years ago

Hi. No .Gif is not useful in Android. .png files are only way.

Is this issue still open?

ardovic commented 4 years ago

it seems so, but you're always welcome to contribute and polish the current code as you find suitable

MalcolmBarbee commented 4 years ago

Looks like a splash loaded up, is this still an open issue? If so, are there any changes that I can help with?

ardovic commented 4 years ago

We might have forgotten to close the issue. Anyways you're welcome to check and make some fixes/additions too! We are happy to welcome any contributions!
