Editing ioSpecial.ini file
Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to edit the ioSpecial.ini file?
When I open the file, its blank. Its got 1 bitmap defined (with no image as text), and 2 labels with no wordings.

Yet the installer/uninstaller picks up the label and image. Can anyone tell me where can I edit these labels and image?

I also found that Label 2 (description) is actually sitting below label 3 (heading). Is that right?

When I add an icon to this ini file, it displays below the other text. I can partly see it and so I know the icon is inserted and displayed. But I can only see part of it (as if it is sitting below all the other fields.

I have also tried right click> bring to front. But doesn't help.

Thanks for the help.

InstallOptions uses the file for the Welcome and Finish pages, so naturally it needs to write the InstallOptions entries at run time. You need to do the same. Use MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_WRITE to write to "ioSpecial.ini" in the Welcome or Finish pages' PRE function.
