InstallDir & SetStaticBkColor Q.
how can i hide the InstallDir window?
i tried "DirShow hide" but it didn't work.

and how can i color InstDetails?
InstallColors doesn't work too, can you give an example of SetStaticBkColor with hwnd?

thank you.


Modern UI or plain NSIS?

If you are using the Modern UI you can't just use InstColors, you will have to define !MUI_INSTCOLORS or something like that (exact name in the readme). Same goes for the directory...

To hide the directory selection page completely use DirText "", if you are not using the Modern UI.

SetStaticBkColor only works on static controls (labels, icons and bitmaps).


Modern UI.

it would be nice if there was more Examples for Modern UI "save time".

i didn't figure MUI_INSTCOLORS . :D
but to hide a dir i removed !define MUI_DIRECTORYPAGE, it work.

thank you


Have a look at the Modern UI Readme (Contrib\Modern UI\Readme.html).
