Multiple MUI_PAGE_COMPONENTS dialogs
Hi.
I’m on my way to create my first NSIS installer.
I have successfully created a radio button page for the user to select one of two alternatives (using the MUI_PAGE_COMPONENTS page, and doing the following in the .onSelChange function (not complete code)

!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_COMPONENTS

Function .onSelChange
!insertmacro StartRadioButtons $1
!insertmacro RadioButton ${section_form}
!insertmacro RadioButton ${section_basic}
!insertmacro EndRadioButtons
FunctionEnd
Now I need a second, similar page but for another variable and other alternatives.
How can I create a second MUI_PAGE_COMPONENTS page that will present other Radio buttons in the .onSelChange function? Is that possible?
Can anyone point me to some sample code that solves my problem.
Thanks!

I think you're over complicating things. Why not create a custom page or two instead? If you have more than one components page you have to hide some sections before showing one page and hide/show other sections for the other page. It gets messy.

Indeed, you'll probably want to create a custom page using nsDialogs. There's an excellent tutorial in the nsDialogs readme.
