Re: Package Maker background color
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev@lists.apple.com So does that mean the answer is "no"? Is this an Installer.app bug in the new OS? Or, is there a specific color we should use as our background color? -Howard On Aug 7, 2009, at 7:13 AM, Rusty Myers wrote: This site has a good picture with the measurements http://s.sudre.free.fr/Stuff/PackageMaker_Howto.html On Fri, Jul 31, 2009 at 12:54 PM, Tim Murison<tim.murison@radialpoint.com> wrote: Hi, -Tim *********************************************************************** This email sent to rustymyers.lists@gmail.com _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

So there's two cases: distribution-based installers, and the older format. In the distribution scripts, there's a tag in the xml called "background" which is documented in this document: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Reference/Distributi... The older format, there are flags in the Info.plist, which I am not sure where they are documented. Stephane has probably written them up.

They don't help if the pane changes size. Under the new OS, if the user is able to change volumes, then the screen that appears increases in vertical size (instead of using a sideways-scrolling window for the list of volumes). This makes the background image the wrong size. As the OP stated, this makes a region appear that's not the same as our background. And making it stretch to fit causes our logo to stretch vertically, which is not acceptable. I am setting a background image to my installer packages. Sometimes the installer resizes its windows and when this happens, I can see the background color which is not the same as my image. Is it possible to set background color in Package Maker, if not, what size do I need to make my image to ensure that it will always cover the entire background of the installer window (I do not want to it stretch out of proportion).
