I had pushed my changes back then, including some rough documentation updates.  
I didn’t modify Wix to include the shortcut to ThmViewer.exe.

This one would be on the SFFEAT727 branch.

I also have a SFFEAT629 branch for the InternetShortcut bug on server core OS’s.

Both were based on 3.8 and were relatively minor changes.

Any updates on this feature? I like the idea of it. Think it'll be ready 
soon'ish to be included in wix38?

Why not add the shortcut now? (I haven't run it yet, I don't know what state it 
is in, but...)

I don't think adding a shortcut breaks anyone's workflow.

Subject: [WiX-devs] ActionData customizations in 3.8


I’ve created a branch and have my 3.7 changes ported to 3.8. The intent is to 
allow users of WixStdBA to turn on ActionData messages being displayed in the 
UI by customizing the theme.  Since we don’t want to introduce new defaults in 
3.X, I’m working on trying to document the changes in the help file instead of 
changing the default theme.  In the help files, I’ve created a “Customize the 
WiX Standard Bootstrapper Application Layout” page where I document the ability 
to provide a custom theme file, as well as my new action data text control. In 
addition, I touched on the ability to resize the BA window.  From there I was 
going to comment on the theme viewer, and was wondering what the best way to 
reference this tool since the Wix installer doesn’t create a shortcut to it.  
Would simply referring to it via “ThmViewer.exe which is located in %WIX%\bin\” 
suffice?



In the future I think we should be creating a shortcut to this tool from the 
Wix install.



Thanks,

Jacob
