WHERE DO I HANDLE MY SETUP DIALOG
BOXES?
The setup dialog boxes are a very important part of an installation.
Via these dialog boxes you can give the user important information
about the installation and let the user choose for example
an installation folder, destination drive, program group
or ask for a license key or password. The setup dialog boxes
are also a good opportunity to give your users a great first
impression of your product or your company.
The following tip will show in detail how to choose which
setup dialog boxes to include in a setup package, how to
add text to the dialog boxes and how to change the dialog
box image. If you are new to Visual Installer we recommend
you to read this tip:

SETUP DIALOG BOX IMAGES IN VISUAL
INSTALLER
There are many ready-to-use images included in our installation
tool Visual Installer. They can be used together with the
setup dialog boxes (the setup wizard) that are shown for
the end-users when they run an installation. The following
video on YouTube shows some samples of dialog box images
that follow Visual Installer:

version of Visual Installer. It is a general dialog box
where the user can select and unselect options that you
add to the setup project.
These options can co-operate with conditional statements in Visual
Installer’s scripting language and with Visual Installer’s
Registry tab. You can read more on this blog post:
