Options for adding dialog boxes
(WiseScript Package Editor only)
If you add a dialog box from the Dialogs page, the dialog box is created with the
same size and shape as the other wizard dialog boxes, it is added to the wizard loop,
and it has correctly configured Next, Back, and Cancel buttons.
If you add a dialog box from Script Editor, the dialog box is empty, and nothing is
pre-configured. You must design and configure it yourself.
Therefore, to add a dialog box to the installation wizard, add the dialog box from the
Dialogs page. To add a dialog box that's not part of the installation wizard (and therefore
doesn't need Next and Back buttons), add it from Script Editor.
(WiseScript Editor) When you add a dialog box, the dialog box is empty, and nothing is
preconfigured. You must design and configure it yourself.
To create a new dialog box
1. Do one of the following:
(WiseScript Package Editor only) Select Installation Expert > Dialogs page,
select a dialog box name, and click Add. The new dialog box is placed before the
dialog box that you selected.
In Script Editor, double-click the Custom Dialog script action in the Actions list.
The Dialog Box Properties dialog box appears.
2. Enter a title for the dialog box in Dialog Title and click OK. Do not enter the same
title as an existing dialog box.
See Setting Dialog Box Properties
The new dialog box opens in the Custom Dialog Editor.
3. Add and configure controls on the new dialog box.
