Cool, any eta for the LZMA compression as yet?
Sorry, I'm just really looking forward to it

kichik · 17th November 2003, 09:54

A week after b4 is released. You better help me release b4 fast

kichik · 17th November 2003, 10:23

OK, documentation updated, RC2 out.

Please help us test it and reply even if it's just for saying "it works for me".

F. Heidenreich · 17th November 2003, 18:28

RC2 works very well for me, except for complaining about missing language strings for czech, romanian and polish MUI language files.

Thank you, for your hard work on NSIS!

With best regards,
~ Florian

kichik · 17th November 2003, 18:40

Yes, a few language files are still not up-to-date

But we have waited long enough. I hope to have the language files seperated from the main release on the next version to prevent this kind of delays in the future. Maybe some automated system that will allow uses to upload their language files to the NSIS website.

psyke · 17th November 2003, 19:19

It works for me!

Great job Kichik, and everyone else involved, the amount of work put into this release is really impressive.

mikem4600 · 17th November 2003, 19:39

It works for me!

Great work everyone!

kichik,

I've just sent the remaining untranslated strings to the translators of my program and asked them to do the translation.

With best regards,

A tiny bug: In part 2.5 of the CHM help file, the link to Mondern UI Examples doesn't work.

kichik · 17th November 2003, 23:02

mikem4600, thanks, fixed.

Heidenreich, that would be great, thanks!

Vytautas · 18th November 2003, 06:26

I just noticed that this does not work any longer

code:
!define MUI_SPECIALBITMAP 'file.bmp'

!define MUI_HEADERBITMAP 'file2.bmp'

Note quite sure when it stopped working or even if it was intentional?

Vytautas

RIV@NVX · 18th November 2003, 09:28

Ok, I tester both RC1 and RC2, and makensis.nsi fails to compile with both ZLIB and BZIP2; there is an error on line 84.

Vytautas · 18th November 2003, 09:32

RIV@NVX it worked for me.

Vytautas

kichik · 18th November 2003, 11:24

Vytautas, that has changed...

Use MUI_HEADERIMAGE_BITMAP to set the bitmap and MUI_HEADERIMAGE to tell the MUI there is a bitmap.

RIV@NVX, thanks, fixed.

kichik · 19th November 2003, 14:03

OK, RC3 is here. Fixed some examples, more docs, fixed bug #844989 (uninstaller subsections), added compressor settings to MakeNSISw, fixed a problem with fonts in the MUI (^Font and ^FontSize were mixed up), language files updates and RTL header image support for MUI.

Unless something turns up, NSIS 2.0b4 should be released in around 6 hours.

kichik · 19th November 2003, 22:20

No more RCs, it's final!

Thank you for your help.

dëëjayz · 20th November 2003, 19:51

!insertmacro MUI_UNFINISHHEADER don't work anymore! What do replace it?

kichik · 20th November 2003, 19:53

You don't need it anymore, it's automatically inserted for you.

torstenian · 15th January 2004, 14:12

The variables:
MUI_HEADERIMAGE_UNBITMAP_UNNOSTRETCH and
MUI_HEADERIMAGE_RIGHT (in uninstaller context) appear to be incorrect in ~/contrib/modern UI/readme.html.

The correct names should have been:
MUI_HEADERIMAGE_UNBITMAP_NOSTRETCH
MUI_HEADERIMAGE_UNRIGHT

(at least, these do the business).
Otherwise, things are looking bright!

-Torsten

Joost Verburg · 15th January 2004, 14:31

MUI_HEADERIMAGE_UNBITMAP_UNNOSTRETCH is indeed incorrect, I'll fix that.

MUI_HEADERIMAGE_RIGHT can only be set for both installer and uninstaller (there is only one setting).
