Disable splash screen #7

Closed cfobel closed 11 years ago

cfobel commented 11 years ago

Is it possible to disable the Portable Python splash screen? I would be willing to donate to the project, but would like to distribute an application running using Portable Python, and would like to use my own splash screen for branding.

It is possible of-course, all source is available so you can do it if you fork this repository and customise however you want.

To disable go to: shortcuts/shortcut.nsi and modify or comment out Function SplashLogo part
To customise you could modify shortcuts/splashX.X.bmp where X.X is version you want to build with your own branded splash image. When you run build next time, all shortcuts will have your embedded splash image.

Awesome, thanks! I did try looking through the code, but am not familiar the installer used here and couldn't find the relevant section. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.

Would be better if the project allowed a "DisplaySplashScreen=false/true" like most other portable apps... I run about 5 Python apps on startup and my login is bombarded with Portable Python splash screens ;-) Don't want to fork and rebuild all just to do what most portable apps do.... ;-)

Any work on this being disabled without recompiling (which isn't working for me, so I've been using the pre-built binaries)?

pericazivkovic commented 10 years ago

Could you help me understand why is recompiling not working?

Indeed it is better to have config file like with portable apps and I'm looking into it!
