change CSS style of default Verge3D Preloader

The default preloader has these classes:
.v3d-simple-preloader-logo
.v3d-simple-preloader-bar
.v3d-simple-preloader-background
.v3d-simple-preloader-container

If you just want to change the logo you could try:
.v3d-simple-preloader-logo {
background-image: url(“./media/my_new_logo.png”);
}

Here are the elements of the simple preloader:

Here are the default definitions of the bar and logo classes:

Edit your project’s CSS file and override these classes as you see fit.

@arslankhan, if you truly want to hide the preloader, set its display to “none”. You can set up a css puzzle in the init tab. Set the “display” style to “none” for the “.v3d-simple-preloader-container”. Do not check the “in parent doc” option.

If you look at the screenshot of the markup in my first response, you will see that this hides the container that contains the logo and the progress bar.

It is probably a better idea to restyle the preloader rather than hiding it. The preloader is there to help the end-user, but I will assume you have a good reason for hiding it.

If you are using the “setup preloader” puzzle piece in the init tab, Verge3D is smart enough to know not to add the simple preloader div elements to the page. My point is, if you are using the “setup preloader” puzzle, you don’t have to do anything to hide the simple preloader.

If your custom preloader page is black, I might be able to guess why that is. The v3d-container is black. You need to draw your custom preloader in front of it and ensure that your custom preloader fully covers the v3d-container.

Here is a simple setup that does just that:

But, to answer your question directly, if you want to use puzzles to remove elements from the DOM, you can use the “set prop” puzzle. Use this puzzle to set the innerHTML to a null string “”. That should delete any div element within the element that you target. Again, this is probably not the right approach. If you use the official “setup preloader” puzzle, this is already taken care of for you.

awesome! thanks for helping out!
