How to adjust dialog for "Preparing to install" in IS 2018

Hello, I created a basic MSI installation using InstallShield 2018 and adjusted the dialogs to show our own logos, backgrounds and strings. However, I was not able to locate the dialog that is responsible for the "Preparing to install" step that precedes the actual setup. This dialog shows a background bitmap that I want to replace with our own bitmap. How can I edit the layout of this dialog?

The preparing to install dialog is displayed by the bootstrapper and therefore there are no options to alter this dialog.

That being said, it is possible to alter some of the text - the following article discusses this more details here:
