Concur 100%. The unified experience is also much better, particularly if your product uses multiple MSI's. -- jmc

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to enable/disable NEXT button on textbox keypress event What I mean to say is I gave up on the Windows Installer UI long ago. It does ok at very basic functionality. If you start trying to do anything remotely complex you'll spend 3 x the time trying to get Windows Installer to do it than you would if you just joined the "cool kids" club and wrote a BA. With your own BA's, you have the ability to do anything your language of choice supports as well as all the power a bundle brings to the table (on the fly downloads of prerequisites, self-updates, etc). -----Original Message----- From: Bala [mailto:balakrish...@ameexusa.com] Sent: Friday, October 10, 2014 1:15 PM To: 'General discussion about the WiX toolset.' Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to enable/disable NEXT button on textbox keypress event Hi John, Thanks for your suggestions Jacob and John You mean to say we need to validate everything through custom action after clicking the Next button. It will not work with the WIX inbuilt condition.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to enable/disable NEXT button on textbox keypress event The problem is inherent in Windows Installer Service Controls: they don't expose focus change events. As Jacob says, to get full WPF control, you need to write your own custom bootstrapper. The Windows Installer Service controls just won't give you that degree of control. It's not WiX specific, this is a problem in general with the Windows Installer Service controls. -- John Merryweather Cooper Senior Software Engineer | Enterprise Service Applications | Continuing Development Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.® | Lenexa, KS 66214 | Ext: 431050 |jocoo...@jackhenry.com -----Original Message----- From: Bala [mailto:balakrish...@ameexusa.com] Sent: Friday, October 10, 2014 11:49 AM To: WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] How to enable/disable NEXT button on textbox keypress event Hi I have a dialog which has two edit boxes. One for username(USERNAME) and the other for the password(PASSWORD). I am doing a small validation like "Next" button will be disabled until the user types something in the username password edit text box and my wix code snippet is written below:- Wix code :- <Control Id="UserNameLabel" Type="Text" X=.... Text=" User Name:" /> <Control Id="UserNameEdit" Type="Edit" X=..Property="NAME" Text="{80}" /> <Control Id="PasswordLabel" Type="Text" X......... Text=" Password:" /> <Control Id="PasswordEdit" Type="Edit" X="...Property="PASSWORD" Password="yes" Text="{80}" /> <Control Id="Back" Type="PushButton" X="....." Text="&Back"> </Control> <Control Id="Next" Type="PushButton" X="... Default="yes" Text="&Next"> <Condition Action="enable" ><![CDATA[NAME AND PASS]]></Condition> <Condition Action="disable"><![CDATA[NOT NAME OR NOT PASS]]></Condition> </Control> <Control Id="Cancel" Type="PushButton" X=... Text="Cancel"> <Publish Event="SpawnDialog" Value="CancelDlg">1</Publish> </Control> However, the above code does not work for the keypress event, it works only when I move out of password edit box (e.g. When I type something in the password edit box, "Next" button does not get enabled. It gets enabled when the focus is moved out of the password edit box). Is it possible to enable the "Next" as soon as user types something in the password edit box like Password: is "test123" & as user type password "te" only so "Next" button enable automatically.
