InstallShield 2015
Project: This information applies to the following project types:
| • | InstallScript |
| • | InstallScript MSI |
You can choose to display only one image billboard during the file transfer process, or you can include a series of image billboards, each one designed to be displayed for a specific amount of time. InstallShield includes support for .bmp, .gif, .jpg, and .jpeg image files.
Note: Animated .gif files are not supported. If you want to use animation in a billboard, consider using an Adobe Flash application file billboard.
To add an image billboard to your installation project:
| 1. | In the View List under Behavior and Logic, click Support Files/Billboards. |
| 2. | In the Support Files explorer, click the Billboards item that should contain the billboard: either Language Independent or a language-specific item. The Files pane is displayed on the right. |
| 3. | Right-click anywhere in the Files pane and click Insert Files, or place your cursor in the Files pane and press the Insert key. The Open dialog opens. |
| 4. | Select a billboard file, and click OK. |
InstallShield adds the file to your project.
Tip: The length of time that an image billboard is displayed depends upon the number of image billboards in your installation project. The percentage of the display time is approximately 1 divided by the number of billboards. For example, if you have four billboards in your installation, each billboard is displayed for 25% of the file-transfer time.
