If Level=0 == feature not displayed and Level=1 == feature displayed and /addlocal feature1,feature2 causes feature1 & feature2 to be displayed and selected what is the magic feature specific property value that /addlocal is controlling in order to define whether a feature is selected or not selected when you land on the canned features dialog UI?
Having worked with old way msimsp.exe generated patch stuff on our previously deliverable I found that by default I need all my features set to level=1 in my wix sources in order for the msimsp.exe old/new msi diff processing to function...so now I'm hesitant to have features with default level!=1 in sources until we've had a chance to make new way torch.exe generated patch stuff work. -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2008 7:54 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.

Subject: [WiX-users] correct way to enable commadn line support for defining features/subfeatures that are selected and unselected by default when you step into interactive install UI experience I have the following logic in each of my feature/subfeature settings so that from the command line users can easily define what features/subfeatures are selected and unselected by default when they step into the interactive install or run and unattended install. When I run my msi in interactive install mode and feed it switches such as "my.msi SITES=1 SITE1=1 SITE2=0 /l*v mymsi.log" what I find in the case of the <UIRef Id="WixUI_FeatureTreeEx" /> interactive UI experience is that instead of Site2 showing up as unselected it is instead removed from the list of subfeatures all together. Am I going about enabling command line support for selected and unselected features/subfeatures the wrong way with this approach? <Feature Id="Sites" Title="!(loc.Sites)" Level="1"> <Condition Level="0">SITES=0</Condition> <Feature Id="Site1" Title="!(loc.Site1)" Level="1"> <Condition Level="0">SITE1=0</Condition> </Feature> <Feature Id="Site2" Title="!(loc.Site2)" Level="1"> <Condition Level="0">SITE2=0</Condition> </Feature> </Feature> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
