Hi Ramya, Your response leads me to several other questions. 1. I have already defined a variable for the source path, which I named SRC_DIR, and I had to give an absolute path as the value for the variable. My .ico file is in a location covered by this path, but my .iap_xml file still contains the absolute path for the ico. It seems like the "Alias, Shortcut Icon" part of the Create Alias panel is not looking at the path variables. 2. When I created SRC_DIR, I gave a full path within my private copy of my checked project tree. If a different developer opens the IA project in their own directory, they have to define the variable to point that their directory tree. Is it possible for me to define a path variable that references $IA_PROJECT_DIR$ ? In my case, my project has a structure something like: /home/userA/base/make/installanywhere/windows src/ scripts/ resources/ "base" is the root directory for the project, and there are a number of toplevel subdirs inside base. My .iap_xml file is in the 'windows' directory shown first in the list above, so IA_PROJECT_DIR is pointing to that directory. I would like to define a new variable, like SRC_DIR, as $IA_PROJECT_DIR$/../../../src Is that possible? I can't seem to do this using the gui. ... View more

Well, I am building an installer for the Windows platform, but I am running InstallAnywhere on a unix machine. It seems like a bad design decision to disable the Installer Icon tab based on the platform where you are running InstallAnywhere, since the tool allows for cross platform kit building. ...
