Installation Address User Interface Dialog Box

The Installation Address dialog box is used to allow the user to choose the Web location where application files will be installed. The Virtual directory and Port fields correspond to the VirtualDirectory and Port properties set for the Web Application Folder in the File System Editor; the values entered into these fields can be retrieved in a custom action using the [TARGETVDIR] and [PORT] properties. This dialog box is only available for Web Setup projects.

The Installation Address dialog box should be the next to the last dialog box in the Start section of the User Interface Editor, preceding only the Confirm Installation dialog box. If this dialog box is preceded by one or more custom dialog boxes (CheckBoxes, RadioButtons, or TextBoxes) the Back button will be disabled; otherwise, it will be enabled.

The following illustration shows a typical Installation Address dialog box, as it would appear during installation.

The only property available for the Installation Address dialog box is the BannerBitmap property, which sets the image that appears in the upper right corner of the dialog box. The position and size of the image are fixed.

Tip   For a consistent user interface, the same image should be used for all dialog boxes in an installer.
