This maybe sound a little counter-productive but is there any way of making a checkbox control non-editable but still enabled (meaning not greyed out)? The idea here is that the checkbox is really informational, not really functional. The installer will control if the checkbox is checked or not based on some condition derived by the script code. It's being used on a summary dialog that isn't meant to be functional as such.
If you want to show a control that has an immuttable value, then disabling it ( making it greyed out ) is the Windows UI practice.
I suppose if you really want to do what you want to do, you could cheat with a couple of bitmaps and then swap out which one is visible. It would probably look really funky though if the user switches desktop themes or goes to a newer operating system.
Thanks. For now we'll just leave them as checkboxes but at a later time we'll probably swap those out with labels and custom bitmap images. I was just hoping to avoid having to do that while still getting the basic look and feel of a checkmark to mean "successful" and an empty box to mean "unsuccessful".
