The property can be defined only once per link job if a duplicate symbol error is to be avoided. So, yes, this could be the source of your problem. Perhaps moving the definition of WixUI_Mode into a common file and using PropertyRef's to bring in the definition could work. Probably would need to use SetProperty to up date it.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] FW: Correct method for modifying a built-in UI? Another question: If I do something like the following: <UI Id="Custom"> <Property Id="WixUI_Mode" Value="Custom" /> </UI> I will get the following error: : error LGHT0091 : Duplicate symbol 'Property:WixUI_Mode' found. This typically means that an Id is duplicated. Check to make sure all your identifiers of a given type (File, Component, Feature) are unique. C:\src\wix39\src\ext\UIExtension\wixlib\WixUI_Advanced.wxs(62) : error LGHT0092 : Location of symbol related to previous error. NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"c:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.9\bin\light.exe"' : return code '0x5c' Stop. Would like to know why? Each of the built in dialog sets define this property, so this leads me into a theory that I am somehow getting ref'd back to WixUI_Advanced. -----Original Message----- From: Nick Ramirez [mailto:nickra...@hotmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 5, 2014 3:50 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] FW: Correct method for modifying a built-in UI? Not sure. Now that you've moved code into a wixlib, any UIRef elements left hanging around still pointing to the old UI? It's probably something simple that I'm not thinking of. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/FW-Correct-met hod-for-modifying-a-built-in-UI-tp7597759p7597774.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users NOTICE: This electronic mail message and any files transmitted with it are intended exclusively for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
