Setting the splash screen display duration

You can change the duration, in seconds or fractions of seconds, that the app splash screen is displayed.

Perform this task by editing the file MyConfiguration.plist in the copy of the DeploymentKitApp in Xcode on your computer.

Procedure

In the file MyConfiguration.plist, in the Property List view, locate the key labelled SplashScreenDuration.
Key Type Value

SplashScreenDuration Number 0

Note: In the Source Code view, this section appears as follows.
```
<key>SplashScreenDuration</key>
<integer>0</integer>
```
The default of 0 displays the splash screen for a fraction of a second.
Change the value from 0 to a number of seconds or fractions of seconds.

Tip: By default, the data type is set to <integer>. If you change the value to a fraction in the Source Code view, change the data type to <real>. (If you set the value to a fraction in the property list view, the data type is changed automatically.)

Key	Type	Value

The app splash screen displays for the specified duration.
