hello everyone

in my installation setup, i have 5 features. but 2 of them are inseparable.
(but i can not associate them as parent and child)
so I wrote a script and use CA to automatically change the feature's state if other one is selected.

but here, i could not find the method to put CA on feature (feature node in custom action). so i put it on the "Next" button. - but here, use can not see the change of feature state, unless he goes back to previous dialog.

so my boss wants the instant result. but i am not sure even this is possible.
i am using installshield 7.0 sp4. is there a way to group features? so if user selects one feature then the other features in that group changes automatically??

thank you,

Stefan Krueger

There is no such way, using the Feature tree dialog. You could create a different dialog, e.g. one that uses some check boxes, instead.
Or use a different approach: don't connect the features, but attach the included components to both features.
