We’re pleased to announce that 9.1.2 has been released.

It has a number of fixes and enhancements.

Here’s the complete list of changes:

  1. BS5: Libraries for DataTables updated.
  2. BS5: Fix error on SetFocus()
  3. Design Screen: Controls no longer lose focus on Windows during moving/editing.
  4. VoltBuilder: Use VoltBuilder to create icons and splashscreens instead of AppStudio.
  5. VoltBuilder: Duplicate lines in config.xml removed.
  6. Samples: BS5 DataTables sample updated.
  7. Project: Internal project version bumped from 9 to 10.
  8. Docs: All remaining references in PhoneGap removed or marked obsolete.
  9. Libraries: various libs updated

If you’re building native apps using VoltBuilder, make sure you supply values for the icon (1024) and splash (2732) properties in Project Properties - VoltBuilder. Otherwise, the default AppStudio icon will be used.

You can download the new release from within AppStudio or from our site .

If you have any questions about the new release, ask on our forum or support@appstudio.dev.

Hi,
I can’t get the Splashscreen to work on the new version.
Should I remove reference to it in the config as well as following the steps noted above?
Thanks,
Neil

You should only have to supply values for the icon (1024) and splash (2732) properties in Project Properties - VoltBuilder .

What does your config.xml look like?

I currently have this in my config… but I am experimenting by removing it , changing it etc with no luck. ( have dragged the splashscreen png to the project also and linked using the project properties…

<preference name='AndroidWindowSplashScreenAnimatedIcon' value='resources/birch2732.png' />

Check the log from the build - check for messages with the word “splash” in them.

Ok, I’m getting

The “AndroidWindowSplashScreenAnimatedIcon” value does not exist. Cordova’s default will be used.

Thing is, it does exist…but it’s no longer picking it up.

Have you had success in test builds there? The only way i can get it working right now is to build with the previous version of appstudio.

Try this:

<preference name='AndroidWindowSplashScreenAnimatedIcon' value='resources/splashTemplate.png' />

AppStudio copies the splash (2732) icon into that path.

Success!
Thanks very much , George!

ok, so the rundown of what I have is as follows ;

in my cache manifest ;

resources\birch2732.jpg

in my project (VoltBuilder) properties ;

splash (2732) : resources\birch2732.jpg

I also dragged that file into my project

Finally in my config ;

<preference name='AndroidWindowSplashScreenAnimatedIcon' value='resources/splashTemplate.png' />

and that resolved the issue. Splashscreen now working!
