HyperlinkLicense
I changed this to include the following features:- Resized to match standard WiX UIs.
- Add welcome text
- Display version number.
The relevant bits of code to do this is shown below, all other code it the same as the standard UI:
<Theme xmlns="http://wixtoolset.org/schemas/thmutil/2010">
<Window Width="500" Height="390" HexStyle="100a0000" FontId="0">#(loc.Caption)</Window>
<Page Name="Install">
<Text X="11" Y="80" Width="-11" Height="30" FontId="2">#(loc.InstallHeader)</Text>
<Text X="11" Y="121" Width="-11" Height="-129" FontId="3">#(loc.InstallMessage)</Text>
<Hypertext Name="EulaHyperlink" X="11" Y="-107" Width="-11" Height="17" TabStop="yes" FontId="3" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.InstallLicenseLinkText)</Hypertext>
<Text X="11" Y="-73" Width="246" Height="17" FontId="3">#(loc.InstallVersion)</Text>
<Checkbox Name="EulaAcceptCheckbox" X="-11" Y="-41" Width="246" Height="17" TabStop="yes" FontId="3" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.InstallAcceptCheckbox)</Checkbox>
<Button Name="OptionsButton" X="-171" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.InstallOptionsButton)</Button>
<Button Name="InstallButton" X="-91" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.InstallInstallButton)</Button>
<Button Name="WelcomeCancelButton" X="-11" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.InstallCloseButton)</Button>
</Page>
This also requires the addition of a few items in the HyperlinkTheme.wxl file:
<String Id="InstallHeader">Welcome</String>
<String Id="InstallMessage">Setup will install [WixBundleName] on your computer. Click install to continue, options to set the install directory or Close to exit.</String>
<String Id="InstallVersion">Version [WixBundleVersion]</String>
RtfLicense
I changed this to include the following features:
- Resized to match standard WiX UIs.
- Change odd looking 3D outline to a single line.
The relevant bits of code to do this is shown below, all other code it the same as the standard UI:
<Page Name="Install">
<Text X="11" Y="80" Width="-11" Height="-70" TabStop="no" FontId="2" HexStyle="0x800000" />
<Richedit Name="EulaRichedit" X="12" Y="81" Width="-12" Height="-71" TabStop="yes" FontId="0" />
<Checkbox Name="EulaAcceptCheckbox" X="-11" Y="-41" Width="246" Height="17" TabStop="yes" FontId="3" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.InstallAcceptCheckbox)</Checkbox>
<Button Name="OptionsButton" X="-171" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.InstallOptionsButton)</Button>
<Button Name="InstallButton" X="-91" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.InstallInstallButton)</Button>
<Button Name="WelcomeCancelButton" X="-11" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.InstallCloseButton)</Button>

Thanks for the post. I am new to Wix. I am using ManagedBootstrapperApplicationHost to create my bootstrapper application. My problem is that the hyperlinks (or hypertext) & buttons are not responding. Actually I don't know where to put the reference for rtf so that it could be displayed. Please help!!! Thanks in advance.
See my previous post http://neilsleightholm.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/wix-burn-tipstricks.html for some examples.
How can we enable feature selection using the theme file ? I am having hard time figuring out if I need a WPF for feature selection or theme file would suffice.
Hi Neil, Thanks for this excellent post. Well, I need to add a combobox on my bootstrapper, so, do you have any idea how can I achive this? Thanks.
I don't think this is supported, if you only have a few options then this http://wixextba.codeplex.com/ supports radio buttons.
Can we add a ListBox or similar control to show list of applications being installed and each entry is marked with some icon depending upon install success/failure or absent or already installed states?
I am afraid something like that is not implemented.
I just do not get it.
I followed the previous post on Burn tips and trics and I got a burn bootstrapper with a HyperlinkLicense screen working nicely.
Now to customise that screen as per this page, do I place the XML for the dialog theme inside the BootstrapperApplicationRef tag?
You also say a modification is required to a HyperlinkTheme.wxl file. Where do I get that? I have wix installed, searched my hard drive, but I get no such file.
If you look here http://neilsleightholm.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/wix-burn-tipstricks.html in the custom UI it should show you how to added the reference.
To get the file you would need to download the WiX source.
@ Neil Sleightholm..i need one help from you i want to put the radio button in bundle to customize UI so based on the radio button i want to copy some files..can you suggest me how to add the radio buttons
HI Neil,I want to customize bundle UI,just wanted to put the the radio button,on selection of radio button want to copy some configuration file..how can we customized the burn UI.Please give me some idea as i am stuck now.

Take a look here http://wixextba.codeplex.com there are some samples that should do what you want.
How to set a Burn variable with a value from textbox from options page? Please Help, thanks in advance.
Hello,
I've provided checkboxes to select MSI's, I want to show the Install page even though the Bundle has been installed, as the user might want to install the MSI's which he had'nt installed during previous runs.
Is there a way to achieve this?

@ Sumeet - not that I know of.
is there anyway to show and accept inputs from "check boxes" listed in uninstall/modify page.
I am not aware of any method.
Is there a way to enable the button to reach the Options page? What I want is an Install page with a checkbox and a "Next" button which is disabled and gets enabled only when the checkbox is selected. When the "Next" button is selected, it goes to the Options page which has one more checkbox and an "Install" button which is disabled and gets enabled only when the checkbox is selected. Once the button is clicked it should start the install. I am able to make the checkbox and the Install button on the second page to work but unable to implement the button disable/enable on checkbox selection on my first page to work.
I have a Button element and a Checkbox element but don't know what to pass for the Name for the Checkbox element. Thanks for your help in advance.
