Hi All, I'm trying to install a component that has a condition based on a GUI checkbox property. I preset the property to the "1" value to set it to the checked state:
<Property Id='write_to_registry_check_box_value'> 1 </Property> ... <Control Id="WriteToRegistryBox" Type="CheckBox" X="25" Y="75" Width="300" Height="15" Property="write_to_registry_check_box_value" CheckBoxValue="1" Text="Write to registry"/> ... If we check such a property value on pushing the "Next" button, it works perfectly. However, it does not work in a component condition (always "1"). Also, the property doesn't work in a custom action. I use wix 3.5 on Windows 7 professional (UAC is on). After the signature, I've included a complete example which should demonstrate the problem.
