Problem with Select Install Folder screen

[pschepeler]

First, in the Select Install Folder screen, my text area is rather large, but the scroll bar doesn't seem to work. Is there some way to activate it, or at least reduce the size of the Install Folder object? I tried deleting the text for Captions 1 & 2, but I still have the same problem. I'm using the SUF 5.0 demo that I just got from a friend, but I'm planning on ordering the last version. Is this problem fixed on 6.0?

Also, where can I find information on how to make my own custom screens. Do I need to edit the .dat files?

Re: Problem with Select Install Folder screen

The amount of text permitted on this screen is fixed and cannot be changed in either version. Although, in Setup Factory 6.0 there is a button that has the default text HELP. You can associate actions with this particular button such as an OPEN DOCUMENT action which could be used to open a document that has a larged detailed description of the options on the screen. This button is an option on all of the screens.

I'm not sure that I understand your question regarding custom screens. You can edit the text, show and hide different options, import, export etc, although you cannot change/add controls to the screens.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, it was helpful. Also, I found out that the scroll bar didn't work because you had to enable it in the text object, so... my mistake.
