This is very often discussed (search the archives, this is the second time this week).
This is a known limitation of the Windows Installer UI (WiX doesn't provide you a UI, it exposes Windows Installer's so you can use it). The two workarounds involve changing your background graphic or shrinking your control down to the size of the checkbox itself and adding a transparent static text with another copy of the checkbox text. -----Original Message----- From: Nan Zang [mailto:naz...@exchange.microsoft.com] Sent: Monday, October 05, 2009 5:07 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Cc: Saket Kataruka Subject: [WiX-users] change the default wixui dialog color Hi All, I tried using ExitDialog (WIXUI_EXITDIALOGOPTIONALCHECKBOXTEXT) to allow the user to control whether our application is run at the end of the install. However, the entire checkbox control has a gray background. Is it possible to change the background color to white or make it transparent?
