Add treeview to Additional Files tab
Posted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 5:30 pm
Hi -
I've used several installers in the past, but think AI is the best being simple yet powerful.
One thing I do miss however is the ability to look at the list of files to be installed in a classic Windows treeview.
My main project has about 10 files in the <InstallDir> plus a subfolder Examples which in turn contains examples for use in 6 different scenarios. In total there's about 30 files.
In other installers I can look at this as a treeview and don't have to open the Examples folder unless I need to. In AI I always get a long list of the 30 files on the Additional Files tab which is much less clear.
My proposal is that you provide a pair of radio buttons to show the Additional Files as either a list view as at present, or a treeview in Windows file browser style.
Does anybody else agree?
