WiseScript Package Editor Reference
Dialog Title
The title of the Select Language dialog box.
Dialog Text
This text appears on the Select Language dialog box. If the installation
supports multiple languages, enter instructions in all supported languages.
WiseScript Package Editor only
In Preferences, customize options for script development and compiling. Also specify
.DLLs to ignore for ApplicationWatch and the Import Visual Basic Project tool.
1. Select Edit menu > Preferences.
2. Complete the Preferences dialog box:
Prompt to Save
Mark this to have Script Editor prompt you to save the installation script each
time you build a new installation .EXE. If you do not mark this check box, the
script is always saved before compiling.
Prompt for Changed Compiler Variables
Mark this to receive a warning if the compiler variables _WISE_ or _ODBC32_
have changed from the last time the installation script was opened.
Example: If you develop an installation script in which the WiseScript Editor
installation directory is C:\Wise, the compiler variable _WISE_ is set to C:\Wise.
If you then open the same script on a different computer, where the installation
directory is C:\Program Files\Wise, then you are prompted to redefine the
compiler variable _WISE_ to the new WiseScript Editor application location.
Compiler variables are set on the Compiler Variables page.
Add Associated Icons and Registry Keys
If you mark this, when you add a file on the Files page in Installation Expert,
icons and registry keys that are associated with that file are added also.
Append New Script Lines
If you mark this, when you add a new script action in Script Editor, it is inserted
after the currently selected script line, rather than before.
Listbox Compatible Mode
If your computer has certain video drivers, you might have problems selecting
items from list boxes within WiseScript Package Editor. If items you select from
list boxes are continually misinterpreted, mark this check box to eliminate list
box problems.
Create Backup Copy During Save
Mark this to create a new backup file every time you save. The backup file name
consists of the current file name plus a number. (Example: If the current file
name is Application.wse, the backups are Application1.wse, Application2.wse,
and so on.) Use caution with this option because a new file is created every time
you save.
This option can also be set from Wise Package Studio Preferences; use this
check box to override the Wise Package Studio setting.
