Splash screen in QML

Praveen.Illa

Hi Team,

I am new to Qt QML and trying to implement a splash screen in qml. But, I am getting a below error when running in eglfs instance.
I have referred the below code from GIT and it was working good in x86 instance
"EGLFS: OpenGL windows cannot be mixed with others."
Could you please help me in resolving this.
My code looks like

main.qml

Item {
    Loader {
        id: mainWindowLoader
        anchors.fill: parent
        visible: false
        source: "qrc:/window.qml"
        asynchronous: true
        onLoaded: {
            item.visible = true;
            splashScreenLoader.item.visible = false;
            splashScreenLoader.source = "";
        }
    }

    Loader {
        id: splashScreenLoader
        source: "qrc:/splashscreen.qml"
        anchors.fill: parent
        asynchronous: false
        onLoaded: {
            mainWindowLoader.active = true;
        }
    }
}

splashscreen.qml

Window {
    id: splashScreen
    modality: Qt.ApplicationModal
    flags: Qt.SplashScreen
    width: 1024
    height: 600

	Rectangle {
		id: splashRect
		anchors.fill: parent
	        color: "white"
		border.width: 1
		border.color: "black"
		
		Text {
			id: initializationErrorMessage
			text: "This is the splash screen"
			anchors.horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
			anchors.top: parent.top
                       anchors.topMargin: 50
			font.bold: true
			font.pixelSize: 20
			color: "black"
		}
	}
    Component.onCompleted: visible = true
}

window.qml

ApplicationWindow {
	id: mainWindow
    flags: Qt.Window | Qt.WindowTitleHint | Qt.WindowSystemMenuHint | Qt.WindowCloseButtonHint
    width: 1024
    height: 600
	visible: false
	title: "Scresh Screen Test"

    Component.onCompleted: {
        var timeout = new Date().valueOf() + 3000;
        while(timeout > new Date().valueOf()) {}
    }

    Text {
        text: "Window ready!"
        anchors.centerIn: parent
        font.bold: true
        font.pixelSize: 20
        color: "black"
    }
}

EGLFS can only display a single window. thus your splash screen cannot be also a window.
you must make it an Item and place it above the content of the mainwindow. E.g. as a child of the windows's overlay for example
