Working with an Action that Sets a Property in a Suite/Advanced UI Installation

Project:This information applies to Suite/Advanced UI projects.

Edition:The Advanced UI project type is available in the InstallShield. The Suite/Advanced UI project type is available in the Premier edition of InstallShield. For information about the differences between these two project types, see Advanced UI Projects vs. Suite/Advanced UI Projects.

InstallShield lets you add to your Suite/Advanced UI project an action that sets a Suite/Advanced UI property at run time.

To add an action that sets a property in a Suite/Advanced UI installation:

1.

In the View List under Behavior and Logic, click Events.

2.

Right-click the Actions explorer and then click New Set Property. InstallShield adds a property action to the Actions explorer.

3.

Enter a new name, or right-click it later and click Rename to assign it a new name. Use a name that helps you distinguish this action from other actions in your project.

4.

Configure the action’s settings as needed.

Once you have added the action to your project, schedule it as needed. For more information, see Scheduling a Suite/Advanced UI Action.
