I thank Scott (alias sheik) for his help in the correction of the bugs in this version.
*'''Added:''' setFocus dll function: Set the focus on the specified control in parameter. It was designed to be used in your leave script functions. Prefer to use the FOCUS flag if you can.
*'''Added:''' New control type VLine and HLine (IO patch #1683189).
*'''Fixed:''' If more than one notify flags is used for a control, any action was notified.
*'''Fixed:''' VisualStudio 6 errors and warning (In particular, the fopen and sscanf functions are used by default instead of fopen_s and sscanf_s except if you define USE_SECURE_FUNCTIONS in the compilation options (in VisualStudio 2005 only)).
*'''Fixed:''' Groupbox and Link controls colors problems.
*'''Fixed:''' A filter key problem for button using the OPEN_FILEREQUEST and the SAVE_FILEREQUEST flags, it did not cut the string in items.
*'''Fixed:''' A problem in the DIRREQUEST that doesn't go to the folder indicated in the RefFields State or in its State key.
*'''Fixed:''' The Notify=ONCLICK and Notify=ONDBLCLICK didn't work with the Link control.
*'''Fixed:''' Applied IO Patch that kill some compiler warnings under Linux and mingw32.
*'''Fixed:''' Use installer's name for message boxes (IO patch #1661677).
* Link and Button can be used in the same way. It was not cleary indicated in this documentation.
* The Notify=ONCLICK is not necessary any more for a link or a button using OPEN_FILEREQUEST, SAVE_FILEREQUEST, DIRREQUEST, FONTREQUEST and COLORREQUEST flags to show the dialog. As for if the State key containing something to be executed or opened. Thus the leave function is not called any more unnecessarily.
* Size optimization: msdn now says SHGetMalloc returns the same allocator CoTaskMemFree uses and a little debugging backs this even on Windows 95.
* Disable the X button for InstallOptions pages as well when CancelEnabled is used.

Description

Version: 2.4.5 beta 3.

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.

Documentation is available with the plugin DLL download.
