InstallAware

I have some issue when I try to customize a Dialog:

1. Cannot change Label color to customized color, the option are very limited. I need to change to color that not in the list.
2. The X button on the top corner of the Dialog is disable during setup. How to enable it?
3. Whenever I load a image to an image control, it look bit blur and not sharp, the original file is good and the width and height are follow exactly the control height and width. Any requirement for images so it look exactly on the Dialog as the original file.
4. Can I change the Radio button selection to like check box selection but only 1 item can be selected?

Dear Ramu2020,

1 - You can use any custom color with dialog's controls, just Double Click over the Color property to define any color you want.
2- Let me check this a little more... I'll let you know.
3- Honestly, I suppose that this may depend on the image you used ... I am not able to see any quality loss with all I use. In addition, all most the dialog's themes included with IA already use images ... and I don't see any problem,. You can easily verify the same by your self, just switch between the various themes available.

4- A Radio Control can't have the Check Box appearance ... this is not an IA limitation.
Alternatively, you could simulate the Radio Control behavior using a Check Box control. In this case you should define a custom "Object Rules" behavior for a Group of Check Box controls, in order to control their selection state. For more details please refer to "Intra-Dialog Relations" in the InstallAware documentation.

Thanks,

Please assist on the item 2.

Any update on the X system button on top right been disable? I really need this. TQ

Not yet!

Anyway, the cancel button does exactly the same thing and eventually, you could create a custom button that does the same.

Yes, for testing I put a Cancel button, but my client requirement is not to put many button but to use the X system button to cancel. Hope you can help as I see it clickable if I launch it from Testing in dialog editor.

Currently the "close system buttom" is disabled by DESIGN to prevent possible issue while a background process may be running.

We'll see if it will be possible to have it enabled in future IA versions.

Anyway as I have already said, you can easily simulate the "close system buttom" functionality ... just hide the Dialog Title Bar and use a Bitmap to replicate the "close system buttom" botton look and behavior.

Hi,
I know how to do that my as I mention in my other post, IA dialog seem to have refresh problem when I put image on the dialog especially during dialog transisition, I really hope IA can fix this bug.

Just replied to your other post http://www.installaware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10222&start=0
... it's not a bug, the problem is caused by the way you used the Glass control.
It is a transparency effect and It doesn't have any effective background color property.
