I hate to ask this question but where did the header section go in my theme?

I thought i would add a header image to my theme after watching the 1.5 how to videos. Problem is i don't get a "header image" section to open and configure. Is it me or is it buried somewhere where i just can't find it.

Hi @Badblueheeler, The header image configuration is in the Advanced Properties section of the Menu List screen. I've only ever used a header image for a Menu List, so I'm not sure what other screen support it. But, if a screen does, it would be in the Advanced Properties section. Mark

Make sure you include dimensions for the header under the advanced properties because if you only include an image without dimensions, nothing appears.

Hi, I have a question regarding Splash screens...I entered my image into xcode BT_images and entered the name of the image into the Splash Screen advanced properties tab. However, when I run the app, the image does not appear with the Splash screen. I am using no color to block it so I am really confused as to why my image is not appearing on the Splash screen...thanks

Hi @Chuki, I find it much easier to replace the Default*.png files that come with the download package with an image that I want to be my splash screen. You can't do any fading or weird tricks with it, but it works as well as any app that I see on the market. If you go that route, remove the splash screen you have created, replace the Default*.png files with ones you want (leaving the same names), and you'll see that image each time the apps starts.
