smaller GUI
Hi!

A quick question..

Is it possible to change the installer window so it will become smaller. I Have created a few custom pages, but I need to resize the widow as well..

Possible to do?

Thanks!

You can create your own dialogs and use them in place of nsis's defalult or modern dialogs. It's a lot of work. Do a search in the form for "Custom Dialog", you should find quite a few examples.

For example see Section, 4.8.1.7 ChangeUI, in the documentation. If a control you don't want to see must exist on a particular dialog shrink it to 1 by 1 and make it invisible and place it in an unoccupied area of the dialog.

Ok!

I will try that!

Thanks for helping me out!

You can use Resource Hacker to modify the dialogue resources (exe) but like zimsms says, this will take a huge amount of work.

My Self-Extractor kit uses a modified Sdbarker_small dialogue (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/archive/...php?pageid=289) which was modified with Resource Hacker (search Google).
