Re: [WiX-users] Customizing the dialog sequnce with Floating Publish events
Hi, What documentation do you mention? I couldn't manage to find the Publish.Dialog attribute, but I would also be interested in this method of overriding the default event linking between dialogs. (Thanks for a link if appropriate.) Otherwise I suppose these Publish nodes should be parented by the control which should fire the event, which is not the dialog, but a button in these cases. I thought it forces me to the check the source code of the (wixui) lib, and sometimes import/recompile them to be able to change their behaviour except for the final dialogs (error, success, etc..) or if they take their Value argument from a property. This latter exception (quotes mean it is a frequent one) is illustrated here http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson2.php#2.3 I hope I wasn't wrong, and would appreciate other ideas/thoughts on the subject.. 2007/9/14, Ian Sullivan [EMAIL PROTECTED]: HI, I'm trying to see if I can insert a dialog into the WixUI_InstallDir sequence, the docs say you can do Publish Dialog=WelcomeDlg Control=Next Event=NewDialog Value=* SpecialDlg*1/Publish Publish Dialog=*SpecialDlg* Control=Back Event=NewDialog Value=WelcomeDlg1/Publish Publish Dialog=*SpecialDlg* Control=Next Event=NewDialog Value=LicenseAgreementDlg1/Publish Publish Dialog=LicenseAgreementDlg Control=Back Event=NewDialog Value=*SpecialDlg*1/Publish Publish Dialog=LicenseAgreementDlg Control=Next Event=NewDialog Value=InstallDirDlgLicenseAccepted = 1/Publish But aren't really clear about where that should happen.

Re: [WiX-users] Customizing the dialog sequnce with Floating Publish events
The docs I'm talking about are part of the v3 (Version 3.0.2925.0) install, kind of bleeding edge, if you can call 4 months old bleeding edge :). If you look in the chm it's in WiX Help-Authoring-Using the WixUI dialog library, if you look at the source it's in src/chm/html/ WixUI_dialog_library.html. That page seems to imply that (in v3) you can affect dialog sequence without having to make your own wixlib. I've also seen brief mentions of this functionality on the list, but nothing concrete. -Ian From: János Brezniczky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 14, 2007 1:57 AM To: Ian Sullivan Cc: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Customizing the dialog sequnce with Floating Publish events Hi, What documentation do you mention?
