Re: Parallels VM - Windows In 64Bit Mode command not working

Many thanks Bart, the issues did occur when running on Apple silicon. I've just included similar test logic to yours, which will hopefully fix the issue.

Technology has moved on a lot since I originally implemented the installer using IA 6!

Best wishes, Peter

Parallels VM - Windows In 64Bit Mode command not working

Hi, Our installer needs to detect a 64bit OS and the IA "Get System Setting Windows In 64 bit Mode command" works fine in a 64bit Windows 10/11 OS running on bare metal, in VMware VMs and in VirtualBox VMs. Unfortunately, it does not report the presence of a 64bit OS when running under a P...

Re: SHA256 Signing Only?

This has been introduced with the latest IA x15 minor update v.32.22. SHA 256-Only Code Signing (Skip SHA-1) Thanks very much Francesco, the new feature is working brilliantly here and has significantly reduced my large project compile time! Please thank the dev team for me, much appreciated. Best ...

Re: X15 Dialogue Caption Background Mixed Colours

Thanks for the update Francesco. I've currently got VistaGlass turned on but with SheetOfGlass turned off. This results in missing captions on WIn 10/11 but I already have our brand icon and the dialogue title in the body of the each form so I realised that I could do without the caption and top lef...

Re: X15 Dialogue Caption Background Mixed Colours

My guess is that this issue came in with the Mica and Dark Mode support that was new in X15.

Hopefully Francesco can give us an update on assessment and timescale for a fix.

Re: X15 Dialogue Caption Background Mixed Colours

Thanks for posting your work-round. In my tests this approach makes the form icon and caption disappear, I'm really looking for a solution that makes the dialogues appear just as they do in the dialogue designer.

Re: X15 Dialogue Caption Background Mixed Colours

It seems that I'm not alone in seeing this, I was just wondering whether the dev team have been able to reproduce the issue?

Re: SHA256 Signing Only?

Thanks Francesco, I really value the automatic signing of all executables so will stick with double signing for now.

SHA256 Signing Only?

Hi, I have double code signing (SHA1 and SHA256) set up and working fine through the IA GUI. I see that many Microsoft executables are now only signed with SHA256. Is it possible to configure IA X15 to only sign SHA256 and not to double code sign SHA1 as well? This would certainly save some time on ...

X15 Dialogue Caption Background Mixed Colours

Hi, We've just moved from X6 to X15 and all is working very well apart from the background colour in the dialogue caption now having mixed background colours on Windows 11 (on Windows 10 it looks just as X6 did). The caption background is uniformly dark across the whole dialogue when viewed in the e...

Build machine creates unlicensed installers

Hi, We have a single user IA X6 Studio license and are using a separate VM based build machine from the real machine on which we develop the IA project. From time to time, not always, the build machine creates installers that give the unlicensed message: "This installation was created with Inst...

Splash screen appears twice?

Hi, I'm running IA X6 and have just added a splash screen to my project for the first time. The screen appears as expected but then disappears and reappears before finally closing ahead of my first dialogue. I can't find a way of changing this to the normal "splash screen appears once" beh...

Re: Relative Paths To Source Files?

Hi, Thanks for adding the relative paths feature to IA 10.10, I've converted all our hard coded paths to relative paths and with one exception everything is looking very good. My one outstanding difficulty is in the Icon File Path field of Create Shortcut. If I put a relative path here the icon does...

Re: IsMsiSetupInstalled - Native mode?

Hi, Thanks for your reply. I'm trying to detect whether a completely different product is installed on the system rather than an earlier version of the current product. I have a pre-requisite application that must be installed before the new application will work successfully; I don't think your sug...

Re: Native Mode Product Upgrade

Hi, Having re-read my post it seems that mis-directed you by saying that this is caused by changing the "Project Name"; I actually meant the "Product Name" on the Project Properties tab. Sorry! :oops: I'm pleased to report that I don't have an issue with changing the "publis...
