Thank you for your answer. Even the engine is very important, I think it is a bit annoying when we cannot display the current msi name during the progress. We are starting to use burn now in our official releases and I hope you could raise the priority of this bug.
Synopsis: The package name is not updated during the installation progress Description: The ProgressPackageName variable (in "[ProgressAction] : [ProgressPackageName]") is not updated during the installation progress even there are several packages to install. This happens also with other pages and variables on other pages. Sometimes changing the order of the variables fixes the problem.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] BA customisation Yes, the wixstdba needs a lot of UI work to make it prettier and behave better. If you look at the bugs open on Burn, you'll find the grand majority of them are on Engine behavior. When there are fewer bugs in the Engine, we'll start focusing on the BA. <smile/> On Fri, May 6, 2011 at 1:09 AM, Timo Viitaniemi < timo.viitani...@crosscontrol.com> wrote: > Clarification to 1).
