Predefined Dialog Boxes
The default set of predefined dialog boxes is displayed in the User Interface Editor; we can rearrange or delete these if we wish. The default set of dialog boxes varies according to the type of deployment project. Predefined dialog boxes are divided into three categories:
Start Dialog Boxes
Start dialog boxes are displayed before the installation begins. Commonly they are used to gather customer information or to allow the user to change the installation directory.
Progress Dialog Boxes
A progress dialog box is displayed to provide feedback on the progress of an installation.
End Dialog Boxes
End dialog boxes are displayed once the installation has finished successfully. Common uses are notifying the user that the installation is complete or to allow the user to launch the application.
We can remove dialog boxes from the default set as per our wish or reposition them using the right click | Move Up/Move Down options. Note that all combinations are not possible here. For example, we cannot remove the Progress dialog box and place it in the Start dialog boxes category after the Welcome dialog box.
