Re: Custom images on installer

Hi,

Unfortunately the Windows Installer stretch algorithm is not very good and may cause slight "corruption" in the bitmaps when applied (it is used when using the "Stretch with fonts" option). This is a Windows Installer bug and it's hard to avoid it.

However, we have on our TODO list a feature which will eliminate this problem. This feature will be available in a future version of Advanced Installer.
