auto-advance in MUI?

I have an MUI installer that collects a bunch of user input in a custom page, and then has some processing to do. This processing may take 20-30 seconds on large systems, and I'd like to at least put up a friendly "please-wait" message.

As it is now, we just get a blank installer box until the next page loads. I can move the processing into a function for a new page, but then I don't know how to advance to the next page (the finish page, as it happens) without user intervention.

How do I "click next" for the user?

Thanks,
Zandr

Have it in the Leave function of your custom page, and then display a message using the Banner plugin...

e.g.
code:
Banner::show /NOUNLOAD "Setup is processing your information..." "Please be patient!"

; ... process here ...

Banner::destroy
