Language-Specific Object Properties Tab

InstallShield 2015 » Project Settings Dialog Box

Project: This information applies to InstallScript Object projects.

The Language-Specific Object Properties tab contains basic information about your object, such as the name of the object, the company that created it, and the location of the object. This dialog box opens when you select the Project menu’s Settings command in an InstallScript object project. This dialog box also opens in an InstallScript project when you register an object from within the Objects view, or you right-click an object in the Objects view and click Properties. In the last case, all properties are uneditable.

IDE Language

Select the language for which you want to specify object information. Available options are English and Japanese.

Use Default

Disabled if the default language, English, is selected. Check this box to specify that the object, when displayed in the selected language, use the same information that you specified for the default language.

The following controls are enabled only if the Use Default check box is unchecked:

Display Name

Enter the name of your object as you would like it to appear in the object gallery.

Short Name

Enter a shortened version of your object’s name, if necessary. You can enter the same name as entered in the Display Name field.

HTML Help

Enter the path to the help file for this object, or click the browse (...) button to navigate to this file. This help file must consist of a single .htm file.

Icon File

Enter the path to the icon file for your object, or click the browse (...) button to navigate to this file. The icon you choose will be displayed next to your object in the object gallery. The icon you use for your object needs to be sized to 16x16 with a maximum of 16 colors.
