Both WixStdBA (C) and the WixBA (C#) have source code available to learn from. Since everyone wants a different look/feel and work flow, the bundle customization is often left up to a custom BA. For a vanilla install, WixStdBA does a good job, but injecting new pages isn't possible without coding. If you are using .Net for your application, I'd strongly suggest starting with a C# BA. This will allow you to do a full blown .Net UI, with all the customization you want, and then just property drive your MSI's.
The second option would be to modify the Options page of WixStdBA to include some check boxes for your feature selection, but I don't think that would give you the optimal workflow that you're expecting (a user would have to click Options before hitting install). -----Original Message----- From: neslekkim [mailto:asbj...@neslekkim.net] Sent: Monday, August 25, 2014 9:55 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Customizing BA for Burn/Bundles I'm creating lots of small msi's so I can modularize my installation package, and have been using the bundle feature (Burn?), to make an Exe that can install everything. The problem with this is the UI.. I have somewhat managed to make UI in the MSI, but I cannot use that UI, and need to make an UI in the Bundle package instead. It seems like I cannot use any the ui features that have been aquired for MSI, so Have to relearn everything in an totally different "language" for bundles.. Where can I find docoumentation on this format?, the Theme files seems to be kinda easy to manipulate, but i cannot find any information about sequence?, or adding other "pages"? What I need, is to implement some form of featureselection, not many selections, but a few, does it exist any bundle projects out there other than the wix installer (which is just a few pictures to click on), that show how to do this? Or is the idea that everyone need to make their own Bootstrapper application? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Customizing-BA-for-Burn-Bundles-tp7596514.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV.
