InstallShield dialog units and pixels
What's the relation between Installshield dialog units and pixels? Is there a formula to convert one to the other?

Yes, but it depends on the font size used on the system in question, and I don't know it. I believe InstallScript uses standard DLUs, and what MSI uses is documented on MSDN; I'm not certain if the latter maps directly to DLUs.

I have a Basic MSI project. Without a precise formula, I often have to do a trial n error and resize the image by a pixel or two, every time I add an image to a dialog. Just wondering if there is a way to get the image and the image box in sync at the first try.
