Select Target Folder Action

[owen]

Hi,

I am trying to modify the dialog where the user selects an installation directory. What I want to do is add two more user-selected locations which will most likely be on other drives. I want the user to be able to pick the location of these two destinations just like they can select the installation folder. I have three edit controls for the three paths, and three Change buttons to bring up the Browse window.

My problem is that I can't figure out how to get the "Select Target Folder" button action to return into the other edit controls, anytime you create a button with action "Select Target Folder" it will return its result into the initial installation directory edit control.

Would it be possible to do what I just described?? And how would I go about doing it, thanks.

If you want to use the Browse button with an action of Select Target folder you need to use individual dialogs.

Before each dialog do something like this:

Set Variable TEMPTARGET to $TARGETDIR$
Set Variable TARGETDIR to $NEWTARGET$
Display Dialog: ImagingInfo , wait for dialog to return (modal)
Set Variable NEWTARGET to $TARGETDIR$
Set Variable TARGETDIR to $TEMPTARGET$


I have found that using individual dialogs allows me to present a better explanation of what the particualr path is for and why they just should click "Next".
