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 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.

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.

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".

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.
