Go to a NSIS page!
  HI. :)

I read the documentation about how to jump a NSIS page, so i need to jump to a page specific if a user select one option u other option.

Well I set this in my script:

# Installer pages
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_WELCOME
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_LICENSE $(MUILicense)
Page custom SetupType SetupTypeLeave
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_DIRECTORY
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_STARTMENU Application $StartMenuGroup
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_INSTFILES
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_FINISH
!insertmacro MUI_UNPAGE_CONFIRM
!insertmacro MUI_UNPAGE_INSTFILES

Function RelGotoPage
  IntCmp $R9 0 0 Move Move
    StrCmp $R9 "X" 0 Move
      StrCpy $R9 "120"
 
  Move:
  SendMessage $HWNDPARENT "0x408" "$R9" ""
FunctionEnd 

>
Them i put this:


${EndIf}

But i confuse because the third page of NSIS is my custom page and then it shows me the install page. What is the order of the NSIS pages that shows with "StrCpy $R9 3" or for example 1,2,3,4, etc... ?

It's a relative jump. If you pass '3', it should jump three pages forward. So where you end up depends entirely on where you're jumping from.

Also, why on earth would you want to jump 120 pages? o__O

Going forward any number than there are pages simulates a Cancel click.

OK, thanks i change this for 8 pages in total... now i see how this work with relative jumps.

But there's also a problem, because the first condition work nice and goes to install files but if i select de second and try to jump to !insertmacro MUI_PAGE_DIRECTORY page then the installer generated an error and exits from installer.

May be it is a bug ? :stare:

no idea about the crash (might need full example code)... but if you only need to move forward, I'd recommend using the technique of calling Abort in the pages' Pre function. Use a variable to indicate which page you want to land on and call Abort in every page that is not the page you want.

hi.

I get the same problem... crash if i jump to directory page, maybe the reason is the value 1 of StrCpy $R9 1 because it's reserved value for next page ?.

I put my script, any help please!

Thanks for the semi-full example; it gives us something to work with :)

Those who want to poke at it, the following is missing (just put it at the top):

"MUI2.nsh"

>var StartMenuGroup

>var CD1

>var CD2

>var Check1

>var Check2

>var Lab1

>var Lab2

>var Rad1

>var Rad2

>var SelPer

>var SelRap

Outfile "$%temp%\temp.exe"

On to the issue at hand, then... the problem in your script appears to be that you're calling 'RelGotoPage 1' from your Custom Page's Leave function. You can't do that, as NSIS will get stuck in a loop. Not sure why, but it does :)

As you only need to go +1 page anyway, you can just -not- call "RelGotoPage" at all, and NSIS will take the user to the next page as usual :)

Exactly, i removed the part in the condition:

${Else}
StrCpy $R9 1 ; va hacia la página de seleccionar directorio
Call RelGotoPage
${EndIf}

So it seems NSIS was getting in a constant loop, and now work fine...

Thanks for help :)

No prob :) I'd still recommend using the other method, seeing as you're only going forward... as you can then easily re-order pages, add/remove pages, etc. without having to worry about updating the relGotoPage index numbers. But this should definitely work :)
