Archive: removing all page descriptors in UMUI


removing all page descriptors in UMUI
I am working on a graphic installer using UMUI, and everything is going great except that the default page descriptors make things look very sloppy. The ones i am talking about appear in the top left corner of every page, such as "License Agreement" and "Component Selection".

I've searched and some pages offer custom options, but not these two AFAIK.

never mind, i figured it out.
Easiest way was to use resource hacker and manually remove the dialog boxes in ******odern.exe.

that was the easiest method? ;\
My guess would be...

General Page Settings

MUI_PAGE_HEADER_TEXT text
Text to display on the header of the page.

MUI_PAGE_HEADER_SUBTEXT text
Subtext to display on the header of the page.
or one of the page-specific defines.. all noted in the UMUI docs.

i tried both of those, but either they were not functioning as expected or returning errors. One particular error kept saying i had not defined a branding image, and another said branding image was not available in the current UI.

I immediately found both of those and figured it would be easy, but i took a more roundabout solution. I don't care for the descriptors anyway, so i won't really miss them being absent from all of my installers.

I just began using NSIS a few days ago, so im still wet behind the ears :)
