File Properties Dialog Box (InstallScript Installation Projects)

InstallShield 2024

Project: This information applies to the following project types:

InstallScript
InstallScript Object

This dialog box displays the properties that are set for a file when it is installed on the target system.

To open the File Properties dialog box:

Right-click a file and click Properties. This option is disabled for files in components whose Link Type property is set to Dynamic.

In InstallScript projects, the File Properties dialog box displays information about the selected file. The information in the dialog box is taken directly from the file system and the dialog box is read only except for the following controls:

Register Font File

If this box is checked, the file is marked internally to be registered on the target machine if you have enabled global font registration. If this box is unchecked, the file is not registered on the target machine.

Font title

For an .fon file, this text specifies the font title that the installation registers for the font. By default, the InstallShield user interface reads the font title from the registry of the source system and enters that font title in this edit box. For a TrueType file (.ttf or .ttc file), by default no text is displayed in this edit box and the installation reads the font title from the file at run time. For all three types of files, if you enter non-default text in this edit box, the installation registers that text as the font title.
