Thanks for the help Mike. I have a very pretty
looking installer now. Is there any way to inspect what variables
can be set with out looking through the source code? Graham From:
Mike Dimmick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Having downloaded the latest weekly
(3.0.2128.0), I can confirm that this seems to work - setting
-dWixUILicenseRtf=License.rtf caused it to be picked up and used in the MSI. -- Mike Dimmick From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Dimmick It looks like you need to add
-dWixUILicenseRtf=<path-to-license-rtf> to the light command line to
change this variable. Right now I can't validate this as I have the 3.0.2015.0
version installed and I can't build the SampleUI tutorial (gets LGHT0132 errors
complaining that nothing's a valid assembly, even though the Assembly attribute
isn't specified, which appears to be a problem in the latest stable unstable
version if that makes sense!) I worked this out by reading
LicenseAgreementDlg.wxs in the source (in src\ext\UIExtension\wixlib) and
working out how light actually processes these variables (it's in
WixVariableResolver.ResolveVariables). Changing the bitmaps is more circuitous;
the bitmaps use a <String> from the (compiled) .wxl file that's embedded
in the UIExtension. This sets each bitmap (marked 'overridable') to
WixUI_Bmp_Banner. In Common.wxs (same folder as LicenseAgreementDlg.wxs) this
is also set via a variable, to WixUIBannerBmp. Again, supply this on the
command line to light, e.g. -dWixUIBannerBmp=<path-to-banner-bmp> As I say, this is guesswork. I hope it
unsticks you. -- Mike Dimmick From:

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Graham D. Ambrose I am trying to customise the standard Wix UI by including
our own licence file and branded backgrounds. I can not seem to be able to work out where to put my files
in order to get them picked up. I am using Wix version 3 and are happily
building using the WixUIExtension. But all the examples of replacing the images
etc that I have found are using Wix V2 and the wixui.wixlib file and the paths
they suggest do not seem to work. Can anyone explain how to achieve the substitution of the
image files in WixUI Many Thanks, Graham |
