Stefano,
I think your talking about:
#define CONFIG_CMD_BMP
- Adds support for displaying raw bmp images.
#define CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
- If this option is set the splash image (or bmp logo)
can be freely positioned
on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos"
specifies the position as
"x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
number of pixel from
left/top. If a negative number is given it is used as
number of pixel from
right/bottom. You can also specify 'm' as x and/or y
to center the image.
While this method of a splash-screen is indeed very flexible it has
the downside of bringing up the splash a little later. The other
downside is that you have to either load it from the filesystem (which
creates an even longer delay) or stick it in a raw partition which
means changing an already established partitioning scheme.
Is it generally frowned upon to add hard-coded logo's as I've done
and/or is there a move to replace hard-coded logos with loadable ones?
It appears there are 16 of them in tools/logos although most appear to
be imx6 or other fsl based boards.
Regards,
Tim
