Clearing Comments Field in Product Details

Is it possible to clear the "Comments" field in the "Product Details" section?

If it is cleared in version 5.1.1, the next time the project is opened it has reverted to "This installer database contains the logic and data required to install [|ProductName]."

Originally we had wanted to use a much longer string but found that line breaks couldn't be inserted, and that the control panel dialog window sizes itself wide enough to support the comments field as a single line which looked ridiculous.

Consequently decided to not use comments field at all but can't seem to achieve this.

THANKS

Hi,

This is a bug of Advanced Installer which will be fixed in a future release. A workaround is to clear the comments in the package before every install.

Will the fix be in the next release or are we looking at a number of releases before it is fixed? Not urgent, just inconvenient.

THANKS
