Hello,
I want to modify the default page directory to add a message box if the space required is insufficient.
I want to have a message box, or a specific message in the interface, even if the Next button is grayed.

When should this message appear?
When the page appear if the default path is insufficient or after selecting the new path.
(When a path is insufficient I have the next button grayed)
(When a path is insufficient I have the next button grayed)
There is .onVerifyInstDir but it is usually not recommended to put a MessageBox there...
Yes I tried .onVerifyInstDir but it's not what I want.
When the space is not enought automaticly the Next button is grayed, can I add text inside the Directory page to tell the user that the space is not enought or color the text "Rquired space" in red ?

here is a printscreen of my interface 
.onVerifyInstdir is not called for all invalid paths, this is the best you can do:
!include WinMessages.nsh
InstallDir c:\foo
!include nsDialogs.nsh
!include LogicLib.nsh
Page Directory "" MyDirShow
Page InstFiles
Function MyDirShow
FindWindow $0 "#32770" "" $HWNDPARENT
System::Call 'user32::CreateWindowEx(i${__NSD_Label_EXSTYLE},t"STATIC",t"Hello world!?",i${__NSD_Label_STYLE},i20,i150,i300,i20,i$0,i0,i0,i0)i.r1'
SendMessage $0 ${WM_GETFONT} 0 0 $2
SendMessage $1 ${WM_SETFONT} $2 1
FunctionEnd
Function .onVerifyInstdir
FindWindow $0 "#32770" "" $HWNDPARENT
GetDlgItem $0 $0 0x400
System::Call kernel32::GetTickCount()i.r2
IntOp $2 $2 & 1 ; "Random", replace with code that checks if it is valid or not
${If} $2 <> 0
SetCtlColors $0 0xff0000 transparent
${Else}
SetCtlColors $0 0x000000 transparent
${EndIf}
ShowWindow $0 0 ; Redraw hack
ShowWindow $0 1
FunctionEnd
