Uninstall Title Issue

[BarbaraG]

I am a bit new to NSIS and have some basic questions. I have defined MUI_WELCOME_TITLE and that works great for the installer part.

But the uninstaller is using the value I have set for NAME as the title of each window. I need to change it but I all I have found so far is the TEXT_TOP for the unConfirm page.

Using code I have found on this forum I have a function that will change the font size for the text below the title. I have no problems using API calls and found the ID of 1037 for this control. Sadly, the text will not change, just the font.

So, I would like to know if there is a simpler way to change the title for the Uninstall.

How do I find the nsDialogs list indicating the control number for the Title?

Thanks for any help,

Barbara

MUI_WELCOMEPAGE_TEXT does not alter the title of the window, which is what I need to change.

The uninstaller is using the string assigned to NAME. There has to be someway to change this that I have just not found.

Let me clarify my problem.

It seems that the installer is using the CAPTION, which is great. But the uninstaller is using the NAME.

I want to change the caption for the uninstaller since it is wrong.

are you referring to the title of the welcome page...


!include "winmessages.nsh"
!include "LogicLib.nsh"
!include "nsDialogs.nsh"
!include "MUI2.nsh"

Outfile "test.exe"

Name "Test"

!define MUI_WELCOMEPAGE_TITLE "Welcome"
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_WELCOME
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_INSTFILES

Section "Test"
WriteUninstaller "$TEMP\uninstaller.exe"
Exec "$TEMP\uninstaller.exe"
SectionEnd

!define MUI_WELCOMEPAGE_TITLE "UnWelcome"
!insertmacro MUI_UNPAGE_WELCOME

!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "English"


Or the title in the title bar of the window?

!include "winmessages.nsh"
!include "LogicLib.nsh"
!include "nsDialogs.nsh"
!include "MUI2.nsh"

Outfile "test.exe"

Name "Test"

!define MUI_PAGE_CUSTOMFUNCTION_PRE TitlebarChange
!define MUI_WELCOMEPAGE_TITLE "Welcome"
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_WELCOME
Function TitlebarChange
SendMessage $HWNDPARENT ${WM_SETTEXT} 0 "STR:Titlebar - Welcome"
FunctionEnd

!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_INSTFILES

Section "Test"
WriteUninstaller "$TEMP\uninstaller.exe"
Exec "$TEMP\uninstaller.exe"
SectionEnd

!define MUI_PAGE_CUSTOMFUNCTION_SHOW un.TitlebarChange
!define MUI_WELCOMEPAGE_TITLE "UnWelcome"
!insertmacro MUI_UNPAGE_WELCOME
Function un.TitlebarChange
SendMessage $HWNDPARENT ${WM_SETTEXT} 0 "STR:Titlebar - UnWelcome"
FunctionEnd

!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "English"

ahhhhh... well that's easy enough even without runtime code.
UninstallCaption is your ticket.


Caption "This is a Caption"
UninstallCaption "This is an UninstallCaption"

Wow, amazing when I have the right commands things really do work. The "UninstallCaption" worked perfectly.

I should be happy with everything I learned during my several hours of trying many stuff that did not work. But right now I just feel very silly.

Thanks to everyone. Great support.
