Disabling Controls...
Because of wacky requirement, I need to be able to disable wizardpanel controls from either a custom event or a wizard action... I cant seem to get to an object that returns me the controls. I can loop thru the wizard tree at this point, but thats about it...
Anyone?

You could do it with initializeUI to disable components on the wizard panel This gets invoked as soon as the dialog is visited.
If you are an installshield veteran, you probably know this.

Yes, I could have but that would require making the change per panel, which would have been a pain... Instead of trying to get the control objects by their panel, I used the database object... For anyone interested heres a snippet...
[CODE]ISDatabase db = arg0.getServices().getISDatabase();
ISDatabaseDef dbDef = db.getDatabaseDef();
ISPanelDef panels[] = dbDef.getPanels();
for ( int x = 0; x < panels.length; x++ )
{
ISControlDef controlDefs[] = panels.getControls();
for ( int k=0; k < controlDefs.length; k++)
{
String controlName = controlDefs.getName();
if ( disabledFields.indexOf(controlName) > -1 )
{
controlDefs.setEnabled(false);
System.out.println("Disabling field: " + controlName);
}
}
}[/CODE]

ISDatabaseDef dbDef = db.getDatabaseDef();
ISPanelDef panels[] = dbDef.getPanels();
for ( int x = 0; x < panels.length; x++ )
{
ISControlDef controlDefs[] = panels
for ( int k=0; k < controlDefs.length; k++)
{
String controlName = controlDefs
if ( disabledFields.indexOf(controlName) > -1 )
{
controlDefs
System.out.println("Disabling field: " + controlName);
}
}
}[/CODE]
