Search for Media in Different Folders GUI
Hello everyone,

I need some help with a script I am creating for an installer.
I am looking for GUI plugin-type that while installing a software the user can select different folders and search for media (for example, Pictures). Right now I am able to select just one folder, but I need to be able to select different folders by making a selection, using for example, checkboxes. In this case, the installer could do its work by looking into the selected folders (recursively if it's possible) and/or drives.

Thanks and I'll appreciate very much any help or comment from anyone.

Hi stolkl!

Have a look at [1] and some examples in either Examples\InstallOptions or Examples\Modern UI\InstallOptions.nsi. To edit InstallOptions dialogs there are many different editors around. [2] or [3]

And searching for files can be done with Locate [4].

[4] http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Docs/AppendixE.html#E.1.2

Have fun!

Cheers
