Using the Required Features Setting
InstallShield 2016
Project • This information applies to the following project types:
The Required Features setting enables to you specify features that are required by the selected feature. For example, you might have an installation with two features—ProgramFiles and HelpFiles. If it is necessary that end users install ProgramFiles whenever the HelpFiles feature is selected, you need to use the Required Features property.
To arrange this feature requirement:
|
1.
|
In the View List under Organization, click Setup Design or Features. |
|
2.
|
Select the HelpFiles feature. |
|
3.
|
Click the Required Features property and then click the ellipsis button (...). The Required Features dialog box opens. |
|
4.
|
Select the ProgramFiles check box. |
At run time, if the user selects a Custom setup type, feature-selection dialogs such as SdFeatureTree will not allow the user to deselect the ProgramFiles feature if the HelpFiles feature is selected.
