Hello Rob,
You are always welcome!
I am really glad to hear the suggestion worked.
Is the "by design" or a bug?
Regarding your question, please note that this is "by design", not a bug.
it seems the default "Theme" is what creates this problematic "ordering" of Dialogs, assume not by design?
Here, it would be the other way around. The
Classic theme has the correct order of dialogs. In the
"Surface" theme, we removed the
"WelcomeDlg" dialog (we thought this would look more aesthetic and also less dialogs = happier the user
)
The documentation seems to suggest I should be able to drag and drop the order per your original suggestion.
This is indeed the case, but there are some limitations as well.
The
"InstallTypeDlg" is a dialog that is triggered by a
"Control Event". This can not be seen in a Professional project, since it does not have the
"Dialog Editor" feature. In an
"Enterprise" project, this dialog would have a "lighting" symbol on it, e.g.:
- InstallTypeDlg.png (9.18 KiB) Viewed 7498 times
Dialogs that are triggered by a control event (e.g. an eventon a button) require that event to exist.
- DialogEvent.png (107.55 KiB) Viewed 7498 times
This is the reason why it did not work to reschedule the dialog at first, because there was no event to trigger it. However, by adding the "WelcomeDlg" dialog, the "Next" button of that "WelcomeDlg" dialog contains an event as the one from the screenshot above, even though it is not visible for you in a Professional project.
I hope this makes some sense!
Best regards,
Catalin
