Customize "Select Custom Folder" dialog

Postby alexbt » Mon Feb 13, 2012 5:32 am

Hi Everyone,

I'm creating an installer where user have to select an existing folder from network, so I've created a custom dialog with a button to browse folders, this button has "Perform Action" field set to "Select Custom Folder".
So when user press the browse button, a Select Custom Folder dialog rise, but...

Is there a way to customize Custom Folder Dialog? 'cause I don't need the "Make New Folder" button on this dialog.
Is there a possibility to show in Custom Folder Dialog only network resources? I mean domains name and shared folders.
Is there a possibility to show a custom dialog as a modal dialog after pressing a button?

Thanks.

Hi,

Unfortunately that is not possible. These are Windows dialogs that IA solely displays.
That being said, you can definitely create your own dialog, however it might be impossible to achieve the functionality you were mentioning.

Another reason why the GUI EDITOR needs some serious updating :).
