How to skip dialogs?
Hello,

I am trying to convert an installer from Installshield to NSIS. In one screen I ask if it is a new installation or an update. If it is an update the component screen should be skipped. I am using 2.0b4 and the Modern UI. I read the Modern UI Manual but cannot find the right information.
It says something of defining a new function. In the prev version there was it in a way like this:
!define MUI_CUSTOMFUNCTION_COMPONENTS_PRE your_function

Function your_function
StrCmp ${UPDATE} 0 Show_component +1
Abort

Show_Component:
FunctionEnd

Is it right that this would skip the component page ??

And can I change the text Nullsoft Install System v2.0b4 ??? In the froum there is something with BrandingText. But I tried it and it doesn't run.

regards
Stefan


1) You should define MUI_PAGE_CUSTOMFUNCTION_PRE, see Modern UI Readme.

2) BrandingText "yourtext" works just fine.
