You can swap in your own theme XML file by setting a WixVariable named 
PreqbaThemeXml to the path of your file.

 On another note... The prerequisite package I used is actually another
 bootstrapper that installs Windows Installer 3.1 (if needed, for operating
 systems older than XP SP3) and the .NET framework 3.5. is this the right
 way to do it? The .NET framework requires Windows Installer 3.1 for it to
 install successfully.

Probably, though MSI 3.1 is available as a normal update package at 
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=enid=25.

[WiX-users] Customize Prerequisite bootstrapper

2011-11-22 Thread Sunny Li
Hi there,

I'm making a managed bootstrapper with .NET 3.5 and everything is working
well. However, on computers that don't have .NET installed, another
bootstrapper is launched to install the .NET Framework first.

That's great, but is there anyway to customize the look of the bootstrapper
that installs the .NET framework?

On another note... The prerequisite package I used is actually another
bootstrapper that installs Windows Installer 3.1 (if needed, for operating
systems older than XP SP3) and the .NET framework 3.5. is this the right
way to do it? The .NET framework requires Windows Installer 3.1 for it to
install successfully.

Thanks,
