Archive: Removing the header?


Removing the header?
I searched the whole forum but it seems like no one discuss about this before. Is it possible to remove the whole header image from the installer?

Thanks in advance for any tips :)


Do you want to remove the whole header or only an image? If you don't want a header on all installer pages you can use the Classic UI.


Actually, I was using Custom page from InstallOption and I would like to have more space for the textbox.

Does the Classic UI allow me to customize the UI (like the custom page from InstallOption)? Thanks. :)


The Classic UI is a totally different UI for all pages without a header etc.

When using the Modern UI, add this value to the Settings section of your InstallOptions INI file:

[Settings]
Rect=1044

And the header won't be displayed on the custom page, so you will get more space.


It works! Thanks a lot. :D


BTW, what does 1044 stand for? I couldn't find any info regarding to Rect ID from NSIS documentation.


Is a bigger invisible block of page added for Modern UI, it covers totally the header. :up: for Joost.


Thanks Deguix. Just wondering, where did you find out the ID? :D


This is a rectangle in the main user interface resource in modern.exe. It is used by the Welcome and Finish page of the Modern UI (they also have no header).
