Description

Version: 2.4.4 beta 2 alpha 2 (Fixed).

This project is now abandoned. Project takeovers are accepted, but until then, the original author will take care of the code.

This plugin is an extension for the original InstallOptions plug-in you find with NSIS package. For those who want to have a more professional looking NSIS page. See a little bit of the feature list below to entertain yourself:

  • More controls: Animation, ProgressBar, TrackBar, IPAddress, DateTime, MonthCalendar, UpDown, TreeView, ListView, Image (based on already existing ones) and RichText.
  • Extended notification system which you can specify the types of notifications you want a control to support.
  • Supports setting colors and font for most of the controls. Alignment works for some controls.
  • Supports timeout, which makes the plugin to go to the validation function automatically after the specified time.
  • Normal and Balloon ToolTips with color change and a halfway multiline support.
  • Automatic detection of number of controls available in your INI page file.
  • Supports variables as a value for any value name, so you don't need anymore to write several times into an INI file.
  • Flags have been added, like of those Buttons with an image or icon, Checkboxes with "gray" state added...
  • ListBox controls have the multicolumn feature which makes each item to occupy less space of the control.
  • Height and Width value names, have a better organization of controls rectangles.
  • Button and Link controls have the old DirRequest and FileRequest controls abilities so that you can customize the control text and where the result will go of selecting a file or dir.
  • All in 23 KB compressed with UPX.

Documentation is available with the plugin DLL download.

Latest Beta Version Changes

  • Fixed: Image controls implementation was coded poorly.
  • Fixed: Dialog box now can be colored (bug introduced IOEx 2.4.1 beta 6).
  • Fixed: Filter key value had last character chop down.
  • Fixed: Filter key value's first item in array is the only one detected.
  • Fixed: Filter key value can overrun the buffer by one byte besides the "BufferSize" limit for characters.
  • Added: Ability to convert "\\" to "\" in lists.
  • Fixed: The ListItems value name for ComboBox and DropList controls can't have the combination "\\" and "\|". This needs to be verified.
