Hi all,
my MSI setup needs some custm actions that should modify a Static text control after pressing a Configure button. I have found a workaround for this problem by creating many such text controls on the same client area and position and having one visible. When the Configure button is pressed, the text control is hidden and another one is shown. I would like to know if there are other ways to update a static text control from within the custom action. Ideally, I should get the visible window using GetForegroundWindow() and EnumChildWindows, then use that handle in a call to SetWindowText or SendMessage(.., WM_SETTEXT, ..); these approaches does not work. From what I read on the MSI documentation, the controls respond to events triggered by the system which are mapped into the EventMapping table or ActionText. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
