 +| Video Splash Screen | **New in 3.14** this allows you to display a video within a lightbox when a project first loads. Splash screens are ideal for short videos used for branding purposes. The video will auto-play and the lightbox will close automatically when the video has played to the end, revealing the first page of the project. Please note that due to common browser restrictions, the video will be muted by default. You can decide whether the splash screen is shown everytime the project loads (even if the first page shown is not page one) or only when the first page shown is page one. |
