Visible only SWF clip

Post by kishorkk23 »

Hi,
While installing our software, we have the progress dialog. In that I want to have only swf file contents to be displayed during progress and rest of the form dialog should not appear, even the minimize and max buttons should not be there. How do I make it happen? Is there any such option?

Dear User,

just remove the controls that you do not want in the dialog using Dialog Editor.

In the same way Set to False the bMinimize and bMaximize from the Dialog properties.

Hi ,
I did the bMinimize and bMaximize to FALSE. Still i get the while background behind the movie.swf while progress installation.

I want only the movie.swf to be played during progress and nothing else ...

Dear User,

honestly I haven't tried but ...

If you use "szFORMSHAPE" in your Dialog Form (Using the Dialog Editor--> Additional-->Rzformshape) .... works as you exepect?

Hi, I still see the white background after applying rzformshape. Where can I see any documentation help regarding this?

Ok I have found one option but that does not seems to work.
There is somthing called transparent color and if you set that value to TRUE, we can get transperancy.
I set the value to whit e and made true. In the form while editing it shows complete transpernacy, but during progress installation it still shows white color :( :cry:

Dear User,

honestly I never tried if it is possible .... probably it is not.

szFORMSHAPE constrol can be used to handle bitmap with irregular shape ... I do not know what happens with SWF files.
