How to make prerequisite selector work

Hello.

I have a feature-based prerequisite (or two).
I added the optional prerequisite dialog to my dialog sequence to give the users a chance to decide if they really want the prereq installed.

1) The selector control is a little ugly - big white box in middle of pretty theme.

2) Even though the prereq was found and the selector said "skip", the checkbox for it was still checked -- I would expect it to not be checked if already installed.

3) Here is my real problem... :cry: On a system where the prereq is not installed, even if I uncheck it on the dialog, it is still launched during the installexecute
Am I supposed to do something else to link up the selected items? not much info in the help on making the dialog "work".

Re: How to make prerequisite selector work

This became a non-issue.
I have the prereq linked to a sub-feature giving the user ability to disable the prereq in the Custom option.
so I don't need the prereq dialog at all. :oops:
