Custom MSI switch

[vpodans]

In the MSI dialog manager I modified FolderDlg by adding a checkbox there. If checkbox is unchecked, default path is used, when checked -- an alternate path is used. I created corresponding events, so in GUI it works. The question is: is there a way to attach a command-line switch, so end user can select default or alternate path?

Hi,

In order to check or uncheck the checkbox from command line you can use its related property as below:

• CHECKBOX_PROP="1" (the checkbox will be checked)
  CHECKBOX_PROP="" (the checkbox will be unchecked)

Best regards,

sounds good. Is there a way to rename this checkbox to some user-friendly name? I see, there are multiple references to checkbox name.

Hi,

Yes, in order to change the property related to the checkbox you can select it and change its "Property name" value from the "Properties" left pane.

Best regards,
