Launch image from code (Paintcode)

I have a launch image with text, that I'd like to internationalize (I know that Apple doesn't like launch images with text though...).

It would be great, if I could do this in code, because then the footprint of the app will be much smaller.

Is it possible to do so and how would I access the launch image? I know the the app icon can't be created dynamically by code, thats why I guess the launch image might follow the same rule.

Thanks.

Solution

  • If you mean the Default.png, no you can't.
    As you mentioned, you can localize them but it will raise your app size.

    One possible solution is to make a really quick app start and a launch image without a text and right after your app launch (-applicationDidFinishLaunching may be appropriate) you display a pseudo splashscreen with your localized text for n seconds.

    But keep in mind this isn't nice nor something apple wants.
