The Installation Expert > Project Summary page provides the following information
about the current installation project and quick access to areas of the installation:
Links to Installation Expert pages that have content in the current installation and,
where appropriate, the number of items defined on each page.
Examples: How many features are defined on the Features page, how many files
have been added to the Files page, and so on.
Links to the Package Contents reports.
Installation package meta data (read-only). You can edit the meta data.
See
Product Details Page
A check box in Wise Options determines whether the Project Summary page appears
when an installation is opened.
Use the Product Details page to enter, edit, or view an installation's meta data. Meta
data is displayed for .MSI, .WSI, and .MST files. In the Value column of the Package
Meta Data table, you can enter or edit meta data that is not read-only.
Note
The meta data that appears when you create a transform comes from the base .MSI. If
you change a transform's meta data, it is set when the transform is applied.
Note
(Visual Studio integrated editor only.) Except for the product version, once the
information on the Product Details page is set, it does not change if you change the
information in the main project.
