  1. Hi Joseph,

    thanks for the great video. Everything works well. Now I am trying to assign different dpi splash screen images depending on the device dpi (as you can do with normal images with but it seems this is not supported for Splash Screens. Do you have any idea?

    I am trying something along the lines:

    But its not working (I tried several different variants). Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    1. Ah, no… cannot be done at this time. Best way I’ve found to do it is simply make the image the largest it can be on your smallest targeted device and have a solid background color. Set the application background to that same color, and do not scale the splash image in any way [ splashScreenScaleMode=”none” ]. Now- it’ll appear crisp across devices – though the larger tablets and stuff will have smaller splash image.

      Anyway- this is my current solution.

  2. seems I can not use the tags so I replaced them with **

    ***s:splashScreenImage**
    ***s:MultiDPIBitmapSource
    source160dpi=”@Embed(‘logo3.png’)”
    source240dpi=”@Embed(‘logo2.png’)”
    source320dpi=”@Embed(‘logo1.png’)”
    **
    ***s:splashScreenImage**

  3. Hi, is it possible to add some text information to splash screen – for example: application version (build) or some date ?
