white screen between screen

[Maryna Brodina]

Hello Michael! Please try the following code: pre.ui-mobile-viewport,div.ui-mobile-viewport {
background: url("url/here/png");
background-color: transparent;
}/pre
You can anything you need in Appery.io builder (except adding libraries which can be done in Eclipse).

Hi Michael,

If you define this style in theme, use the following URL:preurl("images/FolderSwitcherBG.png");/preinstead of preurl("FolderSwitcherBG.png");/pre

No luck here Katya,
adding this to the theme didn't do anything, its driving me mad!

Hello Michael! I'm sorry I have to tell you, but there is nothing we can do... There is one way to render all pages in one HTML file, but to get your app working with this option ticked you would need to review and change your app logic.

OK Maryna,
so am I to take this to mean that its impossible to add an image to the container in any theme within apperyio without confliction from the theme swatch?

if this is the case,
is it possible to add the image to the container in an apperyio project, using a themeroller theme, in xcode and eclipse?

Hello!
1) "impossible to add an image to the container in any theme within apperyio without confliction from the theme swatch" - it's possible, but the way it would display and delays and white screen - there is nothing we can do.
2) Anything you can do in Eclipse/xCode is possible to do in builder (except adding libraries)

this is now resolved,

I have manged to add the image to the themeroller theme in order that it can be selected for both the screen swatch and the container swatch from the builder. Once the image has been added to the theme.

This confliction between these two swatches are what has been causing the problem with glichy, horrible white flash between screens.
this solution works very well for textured tiles for eg. apples stripe and linen, (dont know about images)
Because it in the theme no need for container js or custom css,
makes things more native and quicker!

It has taken a long time to get pass this problem,
there is a platform allowing developers to use themeroller and they have an uploader for the background image,

I hope apperyio consider this as an option as it add a real native feel to ios apps and gets rid of that horrible flash between screens while using themeroller

thx
