If you need UI behavior other than what
Is there a discussion or an article on what approach to take to develop
installer GUI.
If I'm not mistaken, I can see three ways of doing this:

Hello,
I'm using WiX 3. My installation creates shortcuts in the "Program Menu"
folder.
Now I need to add a dialog that will let user to change default location
of the shortcuts in the "Program Menu" folder.
It seems there is no WiX dialog to do this.
I'd appreciate if you could point to such
