Re: [WiX-users] transparent background on text that changes i.e.: OverallProgressPackageText leaves solid background of text foreground colour in Bootstrapper

Steve, I ran into this same issue and another user posted about it last week as well. For the moment I am working around it same as you did. This seems like something that should be corrected though so I went ahead and opened a bug: http://wixtoolset.org/issues/4325/ -Original

Sigh, thanks Tom! Well I guess back to the old drawing board :) I will have to cut in 1/3 the side banner bitmap for Welcome/Install, Success/Failure/Modify screens and try to figure out the hex number for the light gray colour and use that as the background colour for the text on progress

sigh looks like I will have to remove the background image and the side banner image and cut the side banner image to just use the first 1/3 of the dialog... too bad, since the UI looked really nice and what management wanted! -- View this message in context:

I really need help on this! I have a background image that is the same (or really close) to the background colour of the MSI progress page (light gray) but the progress text and action text has a white background don't know how to get the same hexidecimal numbers for the light gray I choose.
