I've decided the easiest solution right now is to use a copy of the dialog
source tree (src\ext\uiextension\wixlib) and make just minor modifications to
it. If later a way of modifying the dialogs is available then I would be able
to take advantage of it pretty easily.
The only problem I've run into is that UIExtension also builds PrintEula.dll
for the Print custom action.
I looked through the various binary and source downloads, but PrintEula.dll
isn't available in any built form.
Is there a way to either extract out PrintEula.dll from WixUIExtension.dll for
my own use?
Or somehow use it while referencing WixUIExtension.dll? If I add
WixUIExtension.dll via light.exe then I get duplicate symbol errors. So
ideally I'd somehow refer to just that binary element.
Thanks,
Kevin

allow fine-grained customization; we added some of that via the "floating"
Publish element to let you specify behavior outside the dialog element. (The
WixUI_InstallDir.wxs fragment has them for most of its dialogs, for example.)
Currently, it's only possible to add behavior; you can't remove anything.It
might be possible to use control conditions to hide the elements you're
interested in removing but right now, there's no such thing as a "floating"
Condition element. It'd make a great addition, however, so feel free to file a
feature request or submit a patch.<g>--
