Re: [WiX-users] Show/hide (or disable) feature based on product key

In that case, you might have to mark the features as hidden and provide an
additional dialog box
with a check box for each feature. When the user clicks 'next' on that form you
call AddLocal or
Remove based on the checkbox states. Showing the dialog and the features is
conditioned on your
product key properties. I'm not sure if it's the best way, but it's at least a
suggestion if
nothing else turns up.
