Suppressing the Display Warning for Legacy Mobile Device Applications

InstallShield 2012 Spring Express Edition

Some legacy mobile device platforms include support for portrait mode but not landscape mode. Therefore, in some circumstances, the installation for a mobile device displays the following warning:

The program you have installed may not display correctly because it was designed for a previous version of Windows Mobile software.

To prevent this warning from ever displaying, do one of the following:

On the Device Files panel of the Windows Mobile Wizard, select the Suppress Display Warning check box. For more information, see Device Files Panel.
On the Processor/Platform tab of the Device Files dialog box, do not select the Platform/Processor independent option. Selecting this option triggers the warning on legacy platforms. For more information, see Processor/Platform Tab.
On the Processor/Platform tab of the Device Files dialog box, select the Specific platform/processor option and in the Platforms list, select only the latest platforms. For more information, see Processor/Platform Tab.

Note that the warning may not be displayed for a target platform if the <BuildMaxScreenSupport> element is included for that platform in the InstallShield Settings.xml file. For more information, see Modifying the List of Available Windows Mobile Platforms or their Associated Settings.
