how do I localize the bootstrapper text?

How do I localize / translate the bootstrapper text?

This has two aspects:

1) the custom text I provide

2) the text that I cannot change such as the text "These programs are needed for the application to run. Click on the check box..." that appears on the Prerequisites screen

Re: how do I localize the bootstrapper text?

Hello,

The translated strings cannot easily be modified because they are included in the bootstrapper resource dlls.
In order to change them, please mail us to support at advancedinstaller dot com stating the strings you want modified, and their translations. We shall mail you back the updated resource file.

Regards,

Is there any plan to add these strings to the dictionaries in a future release?

Re: how do I localize the bootstrapper text?

Hello,

The setup cannot be localizable through the use of dictionaries and so far there are no plans for adding this feature. If there are any strings that need to be translated, send them to support at advancedinstaller dot com and we will include them in our next release.
