Is there any message in debug such as 'Problem on installing theme-supplied font ...' ? This message should come from generate.js, function InstallFont. If you prefer an alert box, change debug("Problem on installing theme-supplied font '" + fontFileName + "': " + b.message,1); to alert("Problem on installing theme-supplied font '" + fontFileName + "': " + b.message);

try, if the following works: cmdow @ /HID @ECHO OFF REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\registry.reg REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\macromdeia.reg start /wait %systemdrive%\install\netfxsp1.exe start /wait %systemdrive%\install\dx\dxsetup.exe /silent start /wait %systemdrive%\install\ATI.CMD %systemdrive% cd \install\wpi start /wait wpi.hta start /wait %systemdrive%\install\cleanup.cmd start /wait poweroff Reboot -warn -warntime 30 -msg "This System Must now Reboot , This Is necessary for applications to complete installation, shortcuts to update. Disk Defrag will start after login" exit [EDIT] BTW start /wait d:\Unattended\Source\$OEM$\$1\Install\wpi\WPI.hta works on my comp if called directly on the command prompt (on another drive, in another directory). so it should, when called from a cmd-file, too.[/EDIT] Post the error message, please.

ad 1) so you do not have a mouse wheel to scroll, is see. well the probs with the debug mode have been solved by a new css delivered with current/future wpi. ad 2) mo-margin or no-margin ... it's all the same. there are undefined properties. they'd only have effect, if I removed that no- / mo-. I should've deleted them completely, but forgot about that. ad 3) bad to hear that, since you could've been the one to tell me if font-installation worked or not (and especially, help me find the problem) tooltip-style is done only via options by now. but you could use the following trick: redefine it in your wpi.htm just put <script>Style[0]=....</script> into the head of yout wpi.htm -> Tooltip-Style by theme.

RTFM ! cdrom is detected automatically. Have you ever looked at the config wizard ? %cdrom% is used often in demo-config. On the Homepages FAQ, it's also explained, HOW the correct path will be detected.

hi guys. try 3.3.2 - i've changed the path handling especially for your needs (WPI wasn't meant to be run from autorun) Autorun doesn't set the correct path, if you call wpi.hta directly. If you called a cmd-skript, that changes to the wpi directory and then calls wpi.hta, it should have worked. Now it should work from within autorun when called directly as well.

No no. Edit the wpi.htm in your a06 folder and replace all occurrences of vaio with a06. so if there's a tag <img src="./themes/vaio/background.jpg"> it should be <img src="./themes/a06/background.jpg"> after the replacements. if you just replaces the background.jpg in the a06 folder and didn't edit wpi.htm, then it would still use the one from the vaio folder. that's how html works. to have debug another bg-color, edit wpi.css. The same to have it another forecolor. try that .debug { font-family: tahoma,verdana,arial; font-weight: bold; color : #FFFFFF; font-size : 8pt; margin-left:0px; background-color: #5A7EDC; }

yes - sorry. download anew.

???? explain why and post an example how. think it over twice. if i enumerate all -lets say subdirectories of a specific folder and use them as checkbox names - how should i know the installation switches, if the specifix app should be checked by default, if there are preconditions, if there are registsy entries to make, if the prog excludes another prog, if I'm hungry ... ???

Bug fixed in Version 3.3.1 BTW - checked the function. You do not need the replpath(), so the cond-line should be as follows cond[pn]=['FileExists("%cdrom%\\Software\\OpenOffice\\setup.exe")']

and I answered it right there

For the cut-off proble, edit boxes.js and search for switch (winheight) { case '480': maxentries=14; break; case '600': maxentries=20; break; case '768': maxentries=26; break; case '1024': maxentries=33; break; case '1200': maxentries=44; break; default: maxentries=31; } lower the maxentries value for 1024 (your resolution ?) and try again. As to the problem with selecting the theme - it works on my comp, whatever I do. Dumb question: did you save the changes in options wizard? - BTW my vaio theme doesn't use the background-picture value from the options wizard. Another question: I see another font than the one I supplied with the theme. Didn't it get installed, or did you change the css ? It should've been installed on opening WPI with the vaio theme. Therefore the vaio htm calls InstallFont('CybertronMetals.TTF'); on load. If there's an error in installfont, it will be suppressed, but you could edit generate.js in the folowing way to get an alert on error: function InstallFont(fontFileName) { try { if (!FileExists(WshShell.SpecialFolders.Item("Fonts")+ "\\" + fontFileName)) WshShell.Run("cmd /C copy /Y .\\themes\\" + theme + "\\" + fontFileName + " " + WshShell.SpecialFolders.Item("Fonts"),10,false); } catch (b) { alert(b.message);} }

dont't forget to replace the single \ with \\ !

Bulldog's right. Therefore the option to hide the option and config button.

@asta right about that. did you know that VAIO means Video Audio Integrated Operation. Well I think sony's behind state of the art when speaking of notebooks. I wonder why my GRX has a brilliant display of 1600x1200, but lacks of an IR port and USB 2.0 !? Also where's video, when there's no Video-in ? So much for Vaio. But they're optically superb, I think.. Someone asked me to publish the psd-soucres for the vaio.theme. download them here. Takes its time (approx. 2 MB). And it's only these 2 files I use - the other gifs are already included in the WPI download.

See here.

Prob is, that people would post ther themes. And MSFN doesn't like wasting their space with tons of screenshots or archives. We have to find a way to share theme-zips on a non-MSFN server. Anybody knows a free upload center ? Also note: theme support is still under development. Tag your themes with version names (e.g myTheme_V330) so that others know, on which version this theme would run without any modifications. Since I'm still constantly working on enhancements with theme support, this would avoid problems. If a theme is made up for a single resolution (like the vaio theme) - tag it (e.g. myTheme_V330_1280) CU

Hi Dennis. I think one of the things you wish for is already in there, but no one knows it. It's the cond property you could use. Hard to achieve, but possible. a little How-TO: You can use all of WPI's defined functions and objects in the cond statement. So imaging you define two office progs PA and PB, but when you burn your CD/DVD you decide which one of the two you put on it - let's say PA. So PB is defined, but not burned to the DVD. PA usually sits in %CDROM%\Install\PA\setupPA.exe PB usually sits in %CDROM%\Install\PB\setupPB.exe you could use the cond property in the following way: cond[pn]=['FileExists("%CDROM%\Install\PA\setupPA.exe")'] ... for PA cond[pn]=['FileExists("%CDROM%\Install\PB\setupPB.exe")'] ... for PB since this condition is evaluated on generation the checkboxes, WPI would not find setupPB.exe on your disc and therefore not create a checkbox. I know the syntax is hard to understand, but that's how javascript conditions are written. To ckeck for operation system one could use cond[pn]=['getOSver()=="XP"') .. the include on XP or cond[pn]=['getOSver()!="NT"') .. the exclude only on NT getOSver returns the following strings: XP, 2K, NT, ME, 98, 95 or "Not found"

Ah. Now I think I know, which tooltips you speak of. You speak buttons' tooltips, not the ones coming from program description, right ? To disable them, you have to edit your lang.js and set all values named tt..... to ''. That should disable them.

Send them to work in the coal mines !!

Save the config - open the wizard again an they should be visible in the combo box.

I'll close that thread. Further discussions in the V3.3 thread

Bug fixed in version 3.3.0 Johnny Rico - wasn't that the hero's name in 'Starship Troopers' ?

Version 3.3 shall be dedicated to themes and themeing WPI. If you have any suggestions on how to make themeing work better - don't be afraid to post them here. For now Version 3.3.0 is out. Check the options wizard to set the theme.

Should be fixed in 3.3.0

Version 3.3.0 fixes this.
