This should work. I have the path to the bitmap in the:
Text=.....
and it works great. so try this:
Text=.....
and it works great. so try this:
the BMP : stacon30thnew.bmp must be in the same folder as the ini file

ok that did it. why does the ini and pic have to be in the same directory initially?????
i moved the picture to the same folder i had the ini in and poof it works.
whats confusing is that it extracts them to the same temp folder when it runs.
ps thanks for them help. being confused and freustrated at the same time is REALLY bad.

Hello,
I would make a classic installer with a top image on each
window. Can I use this script also? Or does it works only for modern-ui?
First I would make it with "AddBrandingImage" but I don't know how I integrate the bitmap. And it seems that nobody
know it too.

oktested install on clean pc and guess what. no bmp in page. after some checking the bmp is extracted to the temp folder with the other files ( InstallOptions.dll, etc) it doesent show. this is really agravationg. I thinks its working buts its not really on a clean test pc.
You must write the path of the bmp to the ini file on runtime.
