Re: Getting proper computer name into simple edit box.

It seems like the problem is caused by some data conversion error, because when I test search it shows the value with the # prefix while combobox contains only numbers.

Create a property-based sub-folder

Hello. I need to create a sub-folder inside "Local Application Data". The name of the sub-folder must be the same as [ProductName]. I managed to achieve this by creating a custom action that sets a property from a formatted text string, but isn't it possible just to create a sub-folder ins...

Re: Getting proper computer name into simple edit box.

Thanks. That works with edit field. Now have to do the same for combobox: it has a list of values, the needed value is read from the registry (REG_DWORD), the goal is to select the item that matches the registry value. I tried it the same way I did with edit fields and string values, but it seems li...

Re: How to uninstall the previous version of prerequisite?

As you can see on the image, installer is going to skip prerequisite installation, but &MyPrerequisiteFeature=3 is still true, so it will try to run uninstaller when it is not needed. Is there any way to know whether the prerequisite is going to be installed or not? http://i40.tinypic.com/dfvdlk...

Re: Getting proper computer name into simple edit box.

I'd like to do the same, but instead of "http://[ComputerName]:6789" I need a registry value. How can I do that? I tried to use the search name, but then property is empty (registry search itself works).

How to show disk free space for selected folder?

In my installer a user should choose a folder that will be used by the installed application. Is it possible to display what space is available on the disk corresponding to the folder chosen by a user?

Re: How to uninstall the previous version of prerequisite?

I noticed "&MyPrerequisiteFeature=3" works different than "&MyPrerequisiteFeature=INSTALLSTATE_LOCAL". It almost do what I want except it is true when prerequisite selector says "Skip". I don't need the action to be called when the feature is checked, but is not...

Re: Something strange with TotalSpaceText & AvailableSpaceTe

Still not completely clear: if it doesn't have a translation for the dutch language why does it add the entry to the dictionary only when the control is edited/moved? If something has no translation it should be added always.

Re: How to uninstall the previous version of prerequisite?

Ok, this should do the job, only I can't get "&MyPrerequisiteFeature=INSTALLSTATE_LOCAL" to work. It seems like it is always false.

Re: Something strange with TotalSpaceText & AvailableSpaceTe

But why does it appear only when you move controls?

Something strange with TotalSpaceText & AvailableSpaceText

I noticed if you move a one of these labels of the CustomizeDlg and then create a localization file, something strange appears there: <ENTRY id="Azure.Control.Text.CustomizeDlg#TotalSpaceText"> <STRING lang="en" value="[PrimaryVolumeSpaceRequired]"/> <STRING lang="...

Short license agreement bug

When using a short license agreement (so there is no scrollbar) "I accept the terms of this agreement" checkbox is always disabled. It requires a user to scroll down a scrollbar, but the case when there is no scrollbar at all seems to be not considered. Tested with Azure theme.

Re: How to uninstall the previous version of prerequisite?

Perhaps, I don't understand something, but it seems like AppSearch is executed almost in the very beginning (right after Begin standard action). The prerequisite I am talking about is rather an extension application, installed as an optional prerequisite. It can be turned off by a user (I use Prereq...

How to uninstall the previous version of prerequisite?

Hello. I want to silently install the prerequisite for my software. That is possible passing the command line arguments, BUT if there was an old version installed it shows the uninstaller GUI. I know, normally applications store a special registry key for uninstalling, so I could run it first in the...
