Dialog Skin Color Change in Developer 7


Best Answer Stefan Krueger , 10 July 2013 - 21:38

If I recall correctly, Developer 7 didn't have a dialog editor, so you may need to edit the resource dll in Visual Studio. I'm sorry that I can't give you a detailed explanation as I haven't used Developer 7 for more than 10 years.

If you are starting a new project, I'd recommend buying the latest version, Installshield 2013 (aka version 20), and use the "Basic MSI" project type instead of "InstallScript MSI"

I don't think that Developer 7 already had the Skin concept. So you would have to write your own code for this. Or use a background image that covers the whole dialog, like on the Welcome and Finish dialogs.
