Archive: change position of custom InstType


change position of custom InstType
HI,

I want to have 2 Sections in Uninstaller:

1. Custom (better with COMPONENTSONLYONCUSTOM-option)
2. Full (All Section must be selected)

Can I place "InstType custom" on the first plase in InstType Dropdown?

Thanks!


No. Custom is always last. You can use InstType Custom but then it won't really be a custom installation type as it'll force the user into a certain selection.


is it not possible to have (InstType /Custom) in Installer and not have it in uninstaller?

installer has 3 types:
minimal
full
custom

uninstaller has 2 types:
custom
full

InstType "Minimal"
InstType "Full"

InstType "un.Custom"
InstType "un.Full"

InstType "/CUSTOMSTRING=Custom"

i try change the name of InstType-Custom with
InstTypeSetText 31 "Full", or
deactivate it with
InstTypeSetText 31 ""
it doesn't work.

thanks


31 is not custom. To change the text of the custom installation type, use InstType /CUSTOMSTRING=something. If you want it to differ between installer and uninstaller, use a variable and initialized it differently in .onInit and un.onInit.
