Hi,

I'm using ISDev7.02 and I have a project that hides specific features based on the serial number the user has entered. So I used FeatureSetData and FeatureSelectItem after the serial number validation part  like this...

if (FeatureSetupTypeSet (MEDIA, "Custom") < 0) then
MessageBox ("FeatureSetupTypeSet failed.", SEVERE);
endif;
nResult = FeatureSelectItem (MEDIA, svFeature, FALSE);  
  FeatureSetData (MEDIA, svFeature, FEATURE_FIELD_VISIBLE, FALSE, "");

The problem is all the hidden features are installed. I checked it when I used FeatureIsItemSelected, all the features hidden and deselected by script was was returnd selected... that why its still installed. Any Idea on how to solve this???... Im really confused... Is there something wrong on my code?

Please help... I would be very grateful fo any help. Thanks in advance.

I am now having a similar problem, and am wondering if you have had any luck?
I've tried setting them differently in the MSI [w/INSTALLLEVEL and Setup Type], to no avail.

I had the same kind of problem and it turned out that I needed to set the feature to "False" after the setuptype dialog is run. the is bacause the changing of the setup types was setting the features back to the default for the selected setup type.
Hope that helps.

Let me also add, this doesn't seem to work for sub-features.

I could only get it to work with top level features.
