Varian Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) Is there a way to set an application window background from a BMP, like GUICtrlCreatePic function (but not with an AutoIT GUI, just an MSI installation window). I have searched but I have not hit on the path I need. FYI, if it seems silly to do this, blame my end users & management. Basically, as the silent (qb!) MSI install window is visible, they would like the background of the installation window to correspond to the application being installed (Adobe, etc.)I'm looking for pointers, not a consultant to write the code for me.

Zedna Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 If you need to change background image in external application then look at _SendMessage($hWnd, $STM_SETIMAGE, $IMAGE_BITMAP, $hBitmap) There are examples on the forum for this.
