Exporting Custom Actions to Other Projects
InstallShield 2020
Project:This information applies to the following project types:
To save a custom action to another project:
|
1.
|
In the View List under Behavior and Logic, click Custom Actions and Sequences (in Basic MSI and InstallScript MSI projects) or Custom Actions (in DIM and Merge Module projects). |
|
2.
|
In the Custom Actions explorer, right-click your custom action and click Export. The Export into dialog box opens. |
|
3.
|
Browse to the location of an existing InstallShield project file (.ism file). It can be either an installation project or a merge module project, but the file cannot be open in another instance of InstallShield. |
A copy of this custom action is added to the specified .ism file. If the other .ism file already has a custom action of that name with different properties, the Resolve Conflict dialog box opens to offer you options for resolving the conflicts.
