Hey Guys, any idea, how to make a setup which looks like Office2007-Setup? For example the blue buttons which become golden on hover etc.? Greetings

This would take A LOT of work because Office 2007 isn't using native/internal MSI UI capabilities. It is instead implementing a custom external UI handler.

Thanks. Maybe a bit to much work for me ;)

Same here. :-) I keep hoping that someone will release a extensible WPF based Embedded External UI handler. Microsoft clearly has the business needs ( support Unicode languages and provide very slick looking UI for many installs ) to invest in these things but most of us deal with the internal UI as 'good enough'.

Yes, of course because the installer is not so important to spend much time just in the UI...I'm looking forward to hear something about Microsoft soon (too hopeful? ;) )
