Creating Subfeatures

To create a subfeature:

1.

In the View List under Organize Your Setup, click Features.

2.

In the Features explorer, right-click the parent feature that should contain the subfeature and then click New Feature. InstallShield creates a new subfeature with the default name NewFeaturen (where n is a successive number).

3.

Type a name for the subfeature. To rename the subfeature, right-click it and click Rename.

4.

Configure the feature’s settings in the right pane.

Tip:You can create multiple nested features at one time by adding a new feature and typing Feature 1\Feature 2\Feature 3 for the feature’s name. InstallShield creates a nested feature structure where Feature 3 is a subfeature of Feature 2, which is a subfeature of Feature 1.
