Hi Everyone,
I have a small application that I am developing that takes a half minute or so to load up (lot of stuff going on). I am wondering what the best way to display a "Loading" form is. For example, if you've ever used Adobe Photoshop, when you launch the program, a dialog/form shows up center screen and it tells you that its loading textures, fonts, etc. I want to do the same thing in my application.
Is the proper way to do this actually creating another form, showing that form in the main form onload event, and then destroying it after the loading process is complete?
Thanks!!
