(Basic MSI project) I'm putting together a proof-of-concept with buttons that launch a web browser with a URL. I've created the buttons in the Dialogs on the InstallWelcome dialog. When I run the install the buttons are invisible and do not appear until I mouse over them. Anyone run into this before and/or know what's up?
set the tab order of all of your controls such that all the background stuff has the low tab indices, and the stuff on top (buttons, etc) have the high end of the tab order. for some reason someone thought that using the tab order would be a good way to determine the order in which the controls would be drawn.
I've never run into that...but it doesn't surprise me. Perhaps the numbering wasn't completely contiguous? Try modifying it in the Control table using the direct editor. I've managed to sneak stuff by the over-reaching logic of the IS IDE using the direct editor.
(Now that I think of it,that's how I did it originally, just because it was easier to go right down the column instead of clicking this control, then selecting the Tab field, then assigning the values, then selecting the next control, and repeating.)
