Desktop shortcut option
I don't see this question addressed in the documentation and after searching the forum, so I'll ask:
How do I give the user the option of installing a desktop icon (and possibly other similar choices)?

Also, half of the time, when I leave the launch program checkbox checked at the end of an installation, my program window is not on top. And suggestion?

Thank you very much.

1. Either by setting up a visible on components page section or a custom page.

2. Check out both threads below,

Thanks a lot, Red Wine. After looking at those threads on keeping the window on top, I decided to handle that in my own application. I don't think any of the choices are dependable anyway.

Does anyone have code to share that would help me add a page for giving the user choices for installing the desktop icon, etc.?

Thank you very much, Red Wine! I hate to say it, but now I'll have to learn how to use it. . . .
