InstallAware ships with a powerful dialog editor. Using the dialog editor, you can customize pre-built setup themes, and also design your own themes from scratch. The full range of controls available on dialogs has to be seen to be believed.
Click each tab on the palette above to see the full range of controls available. Controls unique to InstallAware are highlighted in red.
