"Retry", "Abort" and "ignore" buttons

Hi,

When file is in use and "SetOverwrite On" a MsgBox popups and give the user the chance to "Retry", "Abort" and "ignore", How can I avoid the user to "ignore" some file? Give him only the chance to "retry" "cancel" for example, where cancel aborts the installation.

thanks,
Ramon

I think that's possible by modifying the Nsis source code 🙁

They realy need to add custom messageboxes, e.g.
MessageBox MB_YES|MB_NO|MB_CANCEL|MB_ICONQUESTION "hello!"

That would be very nice.

What NSIS has is the standard MessageBox flags. For Yes, No and Cancel use MB_YESNOCANCEL.

Sorry, bad custom example.

Looking back at the documentation, I can no-longer remember what messagebox type does not currently exist.

Hi,

the built in function MessageBox supports all the flags like API MessageBox and its ok I think, but the problem is with files locked or in use if "SetOverwite on", the messagebox type is hardcoded, maybe some new (feature) command like:

AllowSkipFiles off

is possible kichik?

TIA

Already in the future request list:



Will be done when I get to it (unless someone else beats me to it and submits a patch which will help me a lot).

kichik I already sent you a PM in sourceforge (as Ramon), I have the source code to do this, and is fine for me

Optimized a bit, added a language string in the NLF for it and uploaded to CVS. Thanks!
