Walkthrough

MuseScoreGuiApp now defers splash-screen cleanup until the dock page changes and the main window renders a frame. A 10000 ms timer provides a fallback, and startup follows a separate path when no dock window is available. The app also closes, deletes, and clears the splash screen. The muse subproject reference changed. A blank line was added in WindowContent.qml.

Priority: Low

Severity of issue fixed: Low

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to a9049

Very slow startups can expose an unrendered main window before content is ready, so the splash gating issue should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merge.

Explanation

The guiapp changes implement splash and main-window startup sequencing for [#33596] and [#32612]. The muse submodule update supports the new Asyncable and splash API dependency used by that implementation. The WindowContent.qml blank line is a formatting-only change in a touched startup file. No unrelated behavior is shown.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

The startup changes defer splash closure until the dock page changes and the main window renders a frame. This addresses the timing symptoms in [#33596] and [#32612]. The PR claims the third option from [#32612], but the option also requires main-window transparency set to 0.0. The whole-PR diff contains no such change. The diff also contains no automated tests for the factory-reset, audio-plugin-scan, or startup-page cases.

Resolution

Set the main-window transparency to 0.0 for the third option in [#32612]. Add automated coverage for the affected startup behavior, including the [#33596] factory-reset and audio-plugin-scan path.

In `@src/app/internal/guiapp.cpp`:
- Line 156: Update the startup splash lifecycle around closeSplash() so the 1000
ms timeout cannot hide it before the first QQuickWindow::frameSwapped signal;
remove the timeout bypass or gate it behind an explicit startup-failure state.
Add a regression test that delays the first frame beyond 1000 ms and verifies
the splash remains visible until rendering occurs.
- Line 135: Update doStartupScenario() to explicitly handle a null
IDockWindowProvider or window() result: either provide the required startup
callback and schedule closeSplash() and setVisible(true) without a dock window,
or enforce and validate that every supported GUI context supplies a non-null
dock window.
