Dialog background color
I am trying to set the background color of all the dialogs in my installer to one specific color. Is there a single funtion like DialogSetInfo to do so?

I believe InstallShield uses the dialog colors from the target system's display settings; to change them, I expect you'd need a full-dialog background bitmap on each dialog box (similar to what "exterior" dialog boxes such as SdWelcome and SdFinish use), or use a dialog skin.

Can you please tell me how do I go about doing this?
I tried to add a label and then set the properties same as that of control_52 which gives the default white image on the welcome and finish dialogs but it did not work. Even if I change the size of the control(52) to get a larger white background which is what I a trying to I can see the grey background of the other controls, so that does not work.
