MSIBanner - newest plugin

[Joel]

Of course... there aren't windows or dialogs which the banner attached to it...

The MSIBanner isn't a standalone one
Needs a parent window.

BIG EDIT:
Just test the code ... and I don't get any errors:

code:


!define PRODUCT "MSIBanner"



Name ${PRODUCT}

OutFile "${PRODUCT}2.exe"

ShowInstDetails show

;XPStyle on



Function .onInit

SetSilent silent

MSIBanner::Show /NOUNLOAD "NSIS Installer - ${PRODUCT}"

Sleep 1000

MSIBanner::Move /NOUNLOAD 20 "Countdown to destruction 5"

Sleep 1000

MSIBanner::Pos /NOUNLOAD 100 "Cleaning...."

Sleep 1000

FunctionEnd



Function .onInstSuccess

   MessagebOX MB_OK "DONE!"

FunctionEnd



Section -default

MSIBanner:estroy

DetailPrint "Works great!"

SectionEnd

Be sure to have the lastest version of the MSIBanner...
WOW! Works even in silent mode

Your explanation makes perfect sense! (And once you do it right, it works like a charm!)

Thanks!

2 new questions:
I have situations where I launch applications during an install. The applications I use a banner page that displays while the app is initializing. The problem is that the banner of the other apps covers MSI Banner's window.

Is it possible to force the MSI Banner to the top of all other windows? Or is it posible to set the position of MSI Banner on the screen?

Try using BringToFront to bring the installer to the top.

i take it that's why the attached example doesn't work?
