Adding a Logo or Other Image to the Exterior Dialogs
InstallShield 2024
Project:
Dialog themes are available in the following project type:
Exterior dialogs are dialogs that are displayed first and last by an installation—typically, the Welcome and Completion dialogs. The exterior dialogs for some themes have places for you to put the logo of your company or product. For example, the exterior dialogs of the Monitor theme and the Circles theme have a blank area on the left side of the dialog; you can add a bitmap control to these dialogs to customize your end-user interface.
To add an image to an exterior dialog:
|
1.
|
In the View List under User Interface, click Dialogs. |
|
2.
|
In the Dialogs explorer, expand the All Dialogs folder, and then expand the dialog item for a dialog that should have the image. |
|
3.
|
Click a language under the dialog item that you expanded. The Dialog Editor in the center pane shows the dialog in the selected language. |
|
4.
|
In the Controls toolbar, click the Bitmap button. |
|
5.
|
In the Dialog Editor, click where you want the bitmap control to start, and holding the left mouse button down, drag the mouse to the place where you want it to end. Then release the left mouse button. |
|
6.
|
Configure the bitmap control’s properties in the right pane. |
Click the File Name property, and then click the ellipsis button (...) to browse to the bitmap file that you want to use.
You may want to repeat the procedure for each language and each exterior dialog in your project. The exterior dialogs that are available by default in all new Basic MSI projects are:
