It would be a nice gesture if you added this animated gif to your apps (better with also a link to B4X.com)

I simply used B4J (ImageViews), after cutting and adapting various images using Paint Net.
To get the animated gif I used LICECap.

EDIT - See post #5 - the gif below does not include the Apple logo:

V. 3
As you can see, the gif above are not "perfect", there are "noises", due to the tool I used to create them "capturing" the screen part (b4j form), LICEcap.
For this new version I used this new library (author: @Blueforcer):
Animated GIF encoder

and this is the result, without dirt, as you can see:

(the texts animation is different, I know, and maybe the first kind is nicer; for the moment I have had to do it this way.
I have to check but this version is "heavier", 1,503,506 bytes). EDIT: Yes, this is four times heavier. I could use an optimization tool, I don't know how much you could save.

The real purpose of this new version was to test that very useful new library . In addition, I had to change the method, in order to use the Views Snapshot method (now a panel contains all the ImageViews involved in the animation; before they, the text ones, scrolled on the Form)


EDIT: Evidently I had already solved the "dirt" problem and I didn't remember it (or now my eyes are tired and I don't see it ?)

NOTE: as you know, I am not a "staff member", not an "Anywhere Software" employee.

Attached the first project (which does not use the animated gif encoder library) to the first post.

EDIT: the second project too.
