Splash Screen Request :D
 
Hey Guys

Just wanted to ask if you guys wouldn't mind changing the splash screen so that it doesn't stay on top of all other applications. It's a little irritating when you're trying to read something while wanting Hero Labs to open in the background, nothing major though :D

Thanks for a the great work.

Personally, I'd find the program a whole lot more desirable if it didn't have a splash screen at all. Splash screens are pretty bush league.

Agreed.

Any splash screen is to show the user thjat something is happening in the background. Most programs take a few seconds to load, so the splash screens gives you something to look at.

Hmm... Never knew Nero, DAZ Studio, Microsoft Office, and the programs of the Adobe Creative Suite were bush league...

Bingo. No splash screen would mean that a lot of people would end up launching 3 copies of Hero Lab because "I clicked once and nothing happened". :(

Splash screen is fine but not on top of everything
 
I'm very happy to have a splash screen, it does indeed show that the program is loading; however, having it on top of all other windows is frustrating. Given its long load time, I like to launch it (from shortcut) then continue with other stuff until it loads. Unfortunately, I have to sit through the splash screen every time waiting for it to go away so I can continue with my work. Please remove the "always on top" property.

I agree that having a splash screen is good, but the always on top property is annoying.
