Splash screen dies?

[NewtonScripter]

When I call a function, is the splash screen suppose to die?

Cuz it is for me. How can i work around that. Without having to pass a "message" to the function to create anoter splash screen.

Can you post your code? Because the Splash should disappear until you call SplashOff().

Not to hijack your thread or anything but I have a related question, please.

How do you center the splash image?

local $m1 = @DesktopHeight / 2
local $m2 = @DesktopWidth / 2

$destination = "install\dodbanner.jpg"
SplashImageOn("Splash Screen", $destination, 520, 62, $m2, $m1, 1)
Sleep(3000)
SplashOff()

I also tried all these and more.

$destination = "install\dodbanner.jpg"
SplashImageOn("Splash Screen", $destination, 520, 62, $m1, $m2, 1)
Sleep(3000)
SplashOff()

$destination = "install\dodbanner.jpg"
SplashImageOn("Splash Screen", $destination, 520, 62, $m1-260, $m2-31, 1)
Sleep(3000)
SplashOff()

$destination = "install\dodbanner.jpg"
SplashImageOn("Splash Screen", $destination, 520, 62, $m2-520, $m1-62, 1)
Sleep(3000)
SplashOff()

I honestly feel pretty damn stupid right now. Makes since to me!

Here's the loop that deals with the splash screen

Local $splittestfiles = StringSplit($testfiles, ";")
    For $i_countFinished = 0 to $multipliervalue
        $message = "Wait " & ($multipliervalue - $i_countFinished) & " time(s) for workflow """ & $s_WFname & """ to complete, timeout per job is " & $interval
        SplashTextOn("Waiting on workflows", $message, 400, 50, -1, 10, 0, "", 10, "")
        _DebugOut($message)
        
    ; copy and paste test files into hotfolder, then wait for it to appear in job manager
    ; check if finished
    ; if finished, increment $i_countFinished, else sleep for 1 second and check again
        _DebugOut("Copy test files into hotfolders")
        For $index = 1 To $splittestfiles[0]
            $s_strippedString = StringStripWS($splittestfiles[$index], 1 + 2)
            
            $rv = FileExists($s_strippedString)
            If $rv = 0 Then 
                MsgBox(0, "Error", "Cannot find " & $s_strippedString)
                Exit
            EndIf
            
            $array = StringRegExp($s_strippedString, ".*\\(.+\.con)",1) 
            If @error == 1 Then
                FileCopy($s_strippedString, $submissionfolder)
            Else
                $destination = $submissionfolder & "\" & $array[0]
                DirCopy($s_strippedString, $destination)
            EndIf
        Next
        
    ; wait for job to be finished 
        WaitForJobToBeFinished($i_countFinished, $interval)
    Next
