A bug and a question..
First the bug:

Latest CVS has a problem with the latest MUI. The Reboot dialog has incorrect background colours for the reboot now, manual reboot text.

CVS from a few days ago is fine.

Now the question:

I have the following custom dialog:

http://www.broadband4preston.org.uk/keyfile.JPG

As you can see, I have my Copy code implemented in the "next", this works fine, but I'm having a problem in the "skip" button, this is the Cancel action. Obviously this aborts the install completly. I want to skip to the next dialog. Can this be done. I have tried allsorts, without any luck.

You can't get the cancel button to skip the page, it only cancels. Nice picture btw ;)

I don't know if the picture is showing on this message (it's not for me). You can see the custom dialog in question here:

You need to move your code from your next function to here:

Function CustomDialog
InstallOptions::dialog "mydialog.ini"
Pop $R0
StrCmp $R0 cancel exitpage

myfunction:
##do you're next function ere###

exitpage:
FunctionEnd

Do you have any other ideas what I can do to accomplish this?

Ok, never mind.
The cancel button can't do that.

Actually, put "Abort" after "exitpage:" in that function.

On second thought, you can use the same method that I suggested in this recent thread:

Just send that message if you get cancel from IO.

I'm kinda stuck, as the MUI does not allow me to place buttons on it (if I could do this, I could have a dedicated Copy button, and leave next and cancel as they are).

Looking for inspiration on what to do now.

Take a look at the script I linked to in my last post.

Not working yet...

Here is my code..

Push $CustomDialogKeyPress
InstallOptions::dialog "$PLUGINSDIR\rtx.ini"
Pop $CustomDialogKeyPress
;process the return from the dialog
StrCmp $CustomDialogKeyPress "cancel" CancelPressed
StrCmp $CustomDialogKeyPress "back" GoodKeyCopy

CancelPressed:
; sending this OK message (is this too late???)
SendMessage $HWNDPARENT ${WM_COMMAND} ${IDOK} 0


GoodKeyCopy:

Thanks. Fixed the bug :)

That would be the quit flag doing its work. I'll let you know if I have another idea.

Thanks. It turns out the SendMessage is a nogo for the Cancel, as it's already in the process of quitting.

I have inplemented it on the "back" and kichik SendMessage trick works fine.

Thanks.
