Would it be possible to get the splash screen color?

I haven't tried- the question is too general to easily pull up. Obviously I'm going to experiment with this when I can, but I thought someone here might know:

I'd like to transition smoothly from the default "personal" splash screen (which I actually like) - to my own short splash before transitioning to the menu scene. In the past I matched the background color manually, but recently it was changed from a navy blue to a dark gray.

I wonder if there's a way I could test and grab that color, or otherwise retrieve it, so that I can set my splash camera's clear screen color to it?

Barring that, the splash shouldn't change on past builds - unless naturally you re-build with a newer version of Unity, so I should be able to use a fixed color and just make sure I've changed it to match in my build.

 

you could grab a screen shot of your app loading up, then use a color picker tool to match it?

 

This is definitely the simplest route, and you'd only have to update it if Unity updates the splash screen and you update your Unity version to match.

 

Yeah I'll just keep setting it manually. It's just an interesting question because Unity is running, but I don't think any of your scripts initialize before or during the splash (?) otherwise you can always just get the color at a screen position in a script.

 

That was something else I was going to mention but forgot. Timing for when your first script fires has seemed kind of inconsistent to me. Sometimes it's actually during the splash screen display period, and other times it's not until after. Always go with the simplest option first!
