    Hi Andreas Broothaerts I took a look at the source code for the splash screen implementation, it looks like it is currently hard-coded to a 4000ms duration and is not overridable. 

    I filed this as a quick user story as this has come up from others in discussion previously, I filed it as story 310064: “Enhanced Control for Splash Screen Closure”

    Hey @... ,
     

    Thanks for the information!
    This would greatly improve the experience at our customer! Is there any news on having this as a feature in the near future?

    Hi Andreas Broothaerts thanks for reaching out. The status is that the product team have validated this user story, and will be implementing a configurable duration of display, rather than a full event system. It has not yet been targeted for a specific release of VSW.

    Hi @... ,  Thanks for update! 

    What would be the reason for having it to a certain duration and not to an event?
    Loading the viewer behind a splash screen till it is actually loaded seems like that would be the goal of a splash screen?

    Hi @Andreas Broothaerts, thank you for this thoughtful question. While event-based loading would indeed be an elegant solution, we're currently taking an iterative approach that balances user experience improvements with our broader development priorities. The duration-based implementation allows us to deliver an enhanced loading experience sooner, while keeping the option open for future optimizations.
