Apps With a Splash Page?

[NightOwlCoder]

Hey there guys,

I'm learning ReactiveUI/Sextant and started creating an app based on it.

Our app has a Splash Page, that will after some validation navigate to the Login page or Dashboard.

I'm following the examples and it is working fine, aside from the fact that the splash page has a "Navigation Bar" that we really do not want....

My best guess is that the bar comes from this:
MainPage = Locator.Current.GetNavigationView();

But I can't find another way to actually start my app if not by the above sentence.

Can someone please guide me here?

Thanks

@NightOwlCoder Are you using XAML or C#?

In Xamarin.Forms every ContentPage has access the the NavigationPage which is responsible for its navigation. If you do not want the navigation bar to display on a given page, you turn it off on that page by accessing the NavigationPage static.

<xamForms:ReactiveContentPage x:TypeArguments="splash:SplashViewModel" xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
                              xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
                              xmlns:xamForms="clr-namespace:ReactiveUI.XamForms;assembly=ReactiveUI.XamForms"
                              xmlns:splash="clr-namespace:Splash.Splash;assembly=Splash"
                              x:Class="Splash.Splash.SplashPage"
                              NavigationPage.HasNavigationBar="False">

        public SplashPage()
        {
            NavigationPage.SetHasNavigationBar(this, false);
            InitializeComponent();
        }

It is my first project actually doing C# only.
I'm more of a XAML guy, but wanted to test the waters with it.

So far, after learning about Xamarin.Forms C# markup, I'm actually liking it.

And thank you for the code above, worked flawlessly.

Glad it solved your issue. There are some upcoming changes that will be happening that should make it easier to manipulate the titles and such.
