InstallAware

I apologize if I'm overlooking something, but how do I customize the "Run $TITLE$ Now" string that appears on the final installation dialog?

I tried pulling the "finish" dialog up in the dialog editor, but the checkbox does not appear. I also didn't find this string anywhere in Tools | Edit Global Settings.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hi Mark,

The finish dialog contains the check-box. It does not come from anywhere else. You may have pulled up a wrong dialog?

Hi Michael,

Well, I haven't made any serious changes to the "finish" dialog (except to modify header text), but I don't see the checkbox... at least not in the dialog editor. It's there when I run the setup itself, but not when I edit the dialog.

I'm attaching a screenshot of my finish dialog.

I've attached a normal appearance. I can only figure your dialog control got deleted accidentally.

Strange indeed. I guess the thing that threw me off is that it is still showing up during installation. And I'm fairly certain I never touched that control.

Ah well, I'll just copy the control from another instance of the dialog (in a different InstallAware project).

Thanks for your help!

Maybe the missing element was behind the image?
If this happens again, simply select the image, right click and use "Send to back".
Then you should see the hidden element again.

I'm attempting to remove the "Run $TITLE$ Now" prompt from the same dialog, but the Dialog Editor will not allow me to select the field.

The "Image1" Control seems to be permanently affixed to the front of the stack (Send To Back doesn't work on Image1) and that's the only control I can select on the dialog.

BTW, I'd already removed the "Reboot Now" control and LOCKED the "Run $TITLE$ Now" field with the box checked on this dialog, in an attempt to force the $TITLE$ to run, which didn't appear to work for the moment.

You should be able to delete the control easily. If not, please attach the DFM file for the dialog here - I'll delete it for you and post it back here.
