Certification Logos

[NewsArchive]

Fredrich,

We have top graphics, and side graphics....
Would be really cool to have an optional bottom graphic, where we could
display our certification logo's/stamps.
Perhaps if the "bottom logo" option is selected, the install window could
expand a little taller to incorporate them?
I could build a single graphic with all our cert's in it, would just be
really nice to have a place to put it during the install.

Just a thought.

Thanks, my friend!
-Glenn.

PS. (to everyone) How are others handling/displaying their cert's during
the install?

Hi Jean-Pierre,

It does not really "complain" <g>. It just "warns" you that you are using a
bitmap >256 colors. This can cause problems on "older" machines.

For example, if 100,000 users download your installer then then chances are
that 50-60 of them still have a system that does not support more than 256
colors.

Is it possible to detect the color resolution in SB? What happens on a unit
that has 256 colors and it tries to display 24bit image? I think it just
gets butt ugly but I don't think it is going to affect anything.

Best regards,

Yes, SB can detect the color resolution.

On a unit that has only 256 colors, a 24bit image might cause a delay in
displaying the dialogs. For example, you start setup.exe and then it takes
a long time (depends on the graphic card and processor speed) before the
Welcome dialog displays.
