         {Android splash screen with Qt Development logo on green background}

  This is a simple example which demonstrates one way to show a splash screen
  with Qt. When the app starts, The Qt splash screen with a logo and a
  background color is shown for two seconds. The Qt splash screen is then faded
  out to show the app main view. The main view consists of a simple label and a
  close button.

  In this example, the Android default splash screen (Since Android 12) is
  hidden.

  This example is one of series of two similar examples demonstrating splash
  screen. This one uses AndroidManifest flags
  \l{Implementing a splash screen with Qt Quick on Android}{the other}
  uses QML view.

  \section1 Using the Qt splash screen on Android

  The Qt splash screen for Android is defined in the AndroidManifest.xml.
  The Android project files can be created manually or using the Qt Creator
  template generator. To create an Android project file using the Qt Creator
  template generator:
  \list 1
    \li Open \uicontrol {Projects}
    \li Go to \uicontrol {Build Steps} subsection
    \li Open \uicontrol {Build Android APK}
    \li Select \uicontrol {Create Templates} from \uicontrol {Application}
    subsection
  \endlist

  In the previous snippet:
  \list
    \li \l {android-manifest-qt-specific-metadata}{android.app.splash_screen_drawable}
    defines the resource file defining the Qt splash screen.
    \li \l {android-manifest-qt-specific-metadata}{android.app.splash_screen_sticky}
    keeps the Qt splash screen on the screen until QNativeInterface::QAndroidApplication::hideSplashScreen()
    function is called.

  \endlist

  Since Android 12, Android has a default splash screen. On launch, the default
  splash screen is shown before the first view of the application is shown.
  There are instructions and an API to modify it. See
  \l{Android Splash screens}.
  \br By default, Android uses applications icon for the splash screen. On Qt
  applications this can be used as is, or modified to be used as the
  applications splash screen or it can be combined with Qt splash screen. To
  keep the launch user experience consistent between platforms, it may be needed
  to hide the Android splash screen. To do this, define a translucent theme that
  effectively hides the Android splash screen.

  \quotefile demos/android/splashscreen/manifest/android/res/values/splashstarttheme.xml

  There is a problem though. Orientation changes stop working if we have
  translucent theme. This is caused by the fact that the Android view gets
  its orientation from the underlying view, usually this is an Application
  Drawer which does not change its orientation. And because the theme cannot be
  changed after the Activity view is set, we end up with an application stuck
  in one orientation.
  \br As a workaround we can create throwaway Activity with translucent theme
  for the Android splash screen. As soon as possible we launch another Activity,
  which has all the bells and whistles our application requires.

  \snippet demos/android/splashscreen/manifest/android/AndroidManifest.xml Startup activity

  To launch the Qt splash screen, we also need to override the Android Activity
  \c onCreate and use an Intent to launch the QtActivity.

  In this example the main view contains just a single view with an exit button.
