display a bitmap image during runtime
Hi all -
I'm mocking up my own prerequisite box for an Installscript project. So far so good, all 3rd party components are installing, etc. I was wondering if there was a way to have a little bitmap 'checkmark' pop up once a prereq is installed. I see that you can add a bitmap to a dialog, and set 'visible' to false, but can i set it to 'true' during runtime?

You should be able to use the ShowWindow Win32 API to show or hide any controls on an InstallScript dialog that you can obtain a handle for (see the InstallScript CtrlGetDlgItem function).

Ok, it looks like I have the ShowWindow working now which will show some of the controls. Is there a way to check the status of a customer control prior to setting it? It looks like with ShowWindow I can only pass in the handle and whatever I would like to set it to, not what it's currently at.
