Starting IntroActivity #255

Closed mxp7064 closed 4 years ago

mxp7064 commented 6 years ago

If I understood correctly from other threads - the idea is to first start an activity that we want to show after the intro and then start the IntroActivity. The problem with this is that for a brief moment before the IntroActivity opens we see the previous activity. This is not a huge problem if we are talking about some sort of splash activity that's shown before, but it's really a flawed design if we are talking about some sort of home/main activity. Why would the user need to see that - it looks glitchy and annoying. Does anyone have a solution for this? Thank you in advance

You can easily change your flow such that this IntroActivity is shown first, and then on the final slide, you launch the actual home Activity.

Although a design choice has been recommended by the authors, there is no reason that that is the only possible one. The library certainly supports alternate ones.
