How to add disk space indication?

Installer Enterprise > Classic theme > Enhanced UI (only install)

For the following dialogs:
- FolderDlg
- StartMenuShortcutsDlg
- VerifyReadyDlg

I'd like to have indications of the required disk space and the available disk space.

How can I do this?

Re: How to add disk space indication?

Hi,

The properties you are interested in are:

-- PrimaryVolumeSpaceRequired
-- PrimaryVolumeSpaceAvailable

To have these properties set correct you will need to set the following properties like this:
- go to the "Custom Actions" page and add a "Set installer property" custom action before the "Wizard Dialogs Stage -> Searches" action group
- set the "Property" field to:

Code: Select all

AiEarlyValidate
- set the "Value" field to:

Code: Select all

1
- create another "Set installer property" custom action under it
- set the "Property" field to:

Code: Select all

PRIMARYFOLDER
- set the "Value" field to:

Code: Select all

APPDIR
The custom actions should use the following condition:

Code: Select all

NOT Installed
If you are not using Enhanced UI you only need to set the "PRIMARYFOLDER" property and not the "AiEarlyValidate" property too.
