Set loading background color of node-webkit window

[michalc...@gmail.com]

In node-webkit, how can I set the background color of the window while the page is loading? It seems to always be white, but I would either like it to be transparent, or (in my case) a shade of green.

I've tried setting transparent: true in the window option of package.json, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.

(I have also asked this as a question on Stack Overflow at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20925821/set-loading-background-color-of-node-webkit-window )

I use div with picture, start nw with option "window.show = false", after nw is strated I show the window "win.show()" and picture "programm loading", after page is loaded I hide this div.

Was just about to reply. I do the same thing. I have the win.show in the bottom of my main html in a script tag to detect when everything is fully loaded.

This almost gives what I want, but I still see a flash of white just before the content is rendered. Is there a way to avoid this?

Also, in kiosk mode (which is my main use case), on a mac, 

- The page fades to black

- Then the desktop appears again

- Then there is a quick flash of white

- Then my content appears

Is there a way to avoid this, and just go straight to showing the content?

It sounds like you are calling win.show() too soon. When you say content do you mean a background image or all the elements on the page?

Try adding the div on top of all the content with a background color. After you call win.show you should only see that one div, add a setTimeout to hide in in a sec or less.

Hope it helps

Do you have ajax requests on page? I found the page render lag when loading synchronous ajax requests.

No Ajax, even for Angular templates. An iframe is injected into the page that makes request(s), but only once the outer page has loaded.

Can you do me a priviledge by posting the codes?

package.json:

{
    "main": "index.html",
    "window": {
        "show": false
    },
}

main.js:

var gui = require('nw.gui')
    , win = gui.Window.get()
;
$(function(){
    win.show();
});
