Using the "BlackSurface" theme, the EULA cannot be read because it's black text over an almost-black background. I checked the RTF file, and the font color is set to "automatic" in Word (not black) so I'd think that this theme would set the text to white in this case given that it appears over a ...
While extracting files, the progress bar goes from 0% to 5%, then back to 0%, over and over. It would be preferable if it went from 0% to 100% once during this phase. Here's what the installer looks like just before the progress bar goes back to 0% again:
After a couple years away from your wonderful product, I came back because of a new project and I just got the Enterprise edition upgraded to version 9.8. I love the improvements, but am having a problem:
I have selected .NET Framework 4.0 in the prerequisites. However, if the installer ...
Thank you very much for your reply! I'm not completely sure why you'd need to detect which EXE represents the main application. There are already other places where [ProductName] can be successfully inserted and will automatically be replaced with the desired string:
I'm not using the latest version, so sorry if this has been implemented already. But it would be neat to be able to put "[ProductName]" in shortcuts so that I didn't have redo the shortcut names each time I change the product name, say from "MyApp 2.5" to "MyApp 2.6".
I just wanted to add that I noticed that the prerequisites wizard scales the images along with the dialog. This makes the images look weird and pixelated, but it's probably better than scaling the dialog without scaling the images. My preference would be for nothing to be scaled.
It would be great if you could turn off interface scaling for users on large font (high DPI) machines. Our installer looks strange for clients who use it on large font machines. It looks to me like all the text still fits in the original area, so turning off interface scaling should work. The ...
I finally got around to implementing your suggested solution, but the results are a bit of a problem. On a W2K machine it works exactly like I want now. It has something like this:
Cosmin, I'm still having trouble with this. I changed the installer to force it to be per-machine, and I got rid of the option to add a Quick Launch Icon since I noticed that that goes into the Application Data folder (was that necessary?), but still I have the problem described above. The only ...
