You can use the Release Settings page to override the value of an existing property or
add a new property for a specific release. Example: Change the ProductName property
to reflect that a particular release is an evaluation version rather than a full version.
The property override does not affect property values in other languages in the
installation. Example: If a property has a value of 0 in the Default language and a value
of 5 in German, and you change the value to 12 on the Release Settings page, the value
of the property in the German .MSI will be 5.
Each release contains the properties listed under the Properties icon in Setup Editor >
Product tab. Only those properties that you change or add for a specific release appear
under the Properties icon on the Release Settings page. Properties that you add for a
specific release do not appear in Setup Editor. Deleting a property from the Release
Settings page removes the override for the specific release.
