@SimonSchroeder thank you, you were absolutely right.

You can pre-compute the BMP in a separate thread and then access the finished image in the main thread to use it in the splash screen.

@mrjj understood. thank you.

@JoeCFD yeah, that's what I had in mind (I think). What QML class did you use for your animated widget? (EDIT: I imagine it's AnimatedImage.) And, does yours have a minimum play time before it can be interrupted?

wow,..is that supposed to help ? LOL ! :) Thank you very much for all explaination,..I really need to make tests with this. maybe one day I'll be one of yours..(guru) :) for now I cut/Paste your explaination on my notebook :) thanks again. Angie xx

@SGaist Thanks a lot :)
