Hi,
Does anyone know how to change the background color for IS and custom dialogs?
I'm trying to put a custom graphic on these dialogs through the VC++ editor but am unsuccessful because the dialogs change color based upon the users display settings.

Why not cover the whole dialog with a bitmap, similar to the SdWelcome and SdFinish dialogs?

Stefan,

Thank you for responding.

I tried the sdBitmap function but this seems to only place a bitmap within a dialog window by itself with only the title and nothing else on the dialog. I wanted to place a background dialog on an existing dialog. Much like putting 'clouds.bmp' on SdAskDestPath (built in IS dialog).

Is this possible?

Yes, with a resource editor (Visual Studio) or InstallDialogue
