|---|---|
| Section: | A block of commands "executed in order by the resulting installer." "If [Attribute] ComponentText is set, the user will have the option of disabling/enabling each visible section. If a section's name is 'Uninstall' or is prefixed with 'un.', it's an uninstaller section." |
[/o] [([!]|[-])section_name] [section_index_output]
Begins and opens a new section. If section_name is empty, omitted, or begins with a -, then it is a hidden section and the user will not have the option of disabling it. If the section name is 'Uninstall' or is prefixed with 'un.', then it is a an uninstaller section. If section_index_output is specified, the parameter will be !defined with the section index (that can be used for SectionSetText etc). If the section name begins with a !, the section will be displayed as bold. If the /o switch is specified, the section will be unselected by default.

To access the section index, curly brackets must be used and the code must be located below the section in the script.
