Here's the image from the archive. I think it's easier to see a GIf instead of a BMP inside a RAR archive

Let's start with terminology: In Windows Installer, users don't select "components" but "features".

You can use the CustomSetup dialog to display a tree view of your features. However it doesn't have simple checkboxes but selection controls where the user has a choice of install local, run from source, install on first use etc. For more information about these options see http://www.installsi...etupOptions.htm

In this screenshot there's also a combo box to select setup types. InstallShield has a separate dialog for this: SetupType.

Thanks for your reply.

I have more questions for you, will explain in another topics


P.S.:
I created a bitmap of ~1,5 MB, Then i noticed that was greater than 500 k and I have compressed, only to do before.

this is not the sense of what I said!
I known that a JPEG is smaller than a BMP.

With Paint, I created the first format of image that happened to me.
I hope to be clear

Bye

Sorry, no offense intended.
Let's return to your real question: how to build a dialog like that.

[AngeloF]

My problem is:

I have to create an installation setup is this :

"SQL"
|---->"Engine"
|---->"SQL Management"
"Application"
|---->"Client"
|---->"Server"

I want using my bitmap in a my dialog with a treeview control with these features

What are your suggestions ?

In Setup Design or Feature view, you can set up your feature tree as needed. Then use the CustomSetup dialog to display it.
