I’m not understanding something. I’m trying to get a splash screen on my application. When the splash screen is disabled, everything works fine. But once I put the splash screen in the app, I can’t close the app. I get “NameError: global name ‘app’ is not defined”. If I comment out the line “app.OnClose()” the main loop doesn’t terminate when I close the program. Does the splash screen somehow kill the instance of App?
How am I supposed to do this?
Thanks for the help!

Your code works fine for me (once I supplied a bitmap).
Are you using Classic or Phoenix? What OS and toolkit?

I’m using Classic on Mac.
I worked around the problem using the attached, moving the splash outside the rest of the code, but it seems like bad style – ? Is there something bad about this solution? Anything better I should be doing?
Thank you, Scott, for the reply.
