I defined control width constants in a .wxi file as such: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Include> <?define TinyControlWidth = "36" ?> <?define SmallControlWidth = "70" ?> <?define MediumControlWidth = "110" ?> <?define LargeControlWidth = "180" ?> </Include>
I then included it in a .wxs file containing a dialog. I used one of the above constants for the width of a control on that dialog like this: <Control Id="MyControl" Type="ComboBox" X="160" Y="56" Width="$(var.TinyControlWidth)" Height="16" ... /> It builds successfully. But, Visual Studio 2012 gives this warning: Warning 1 The 'Width' attribute is invalid - The value '$(var.TinyControlWidth)' is invalid according to its datatype 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi:LocalizableInteger' - The Pattern constraint failed. Is there a way to suppress this warning or a different/better way to use constants for control width, height, x, and y?
