FMXInno - Windows Fluent Design Installer UI for Inno

[CrownRepack]

Hi, I'm trying to add a function in my installer similar to CODEX or FLT installer where there's a checkbox that is "Copy Crack from directory" or "Apply Crack" ,

I want to repack the game in its original uncracked state and do multiple selections for a crack, so what I want is someone to help me write a code, or there is a template to basically just copy the crack from a specific folder

For example I have a game Cuphead, and in the main directory folder of the game I have a folder called "Crack" and in there I have the cracks

So what's the code to basically just copy the contents of the Crack folder to the game after installing if the user checks the checkbox... thank you

We need to check whether the real file was actually copied from that folder, or if it was replaced (We need to check the file size or its hash value.). Only then "Result:=True". In general, you're trying to complicate things and invent a new wheel, even though it's already been invented for a long time. It would be much clearer if you had the executable file in a single archive.

Alternate to that, if you really want to do so, you can compress 'Crack' folder like crack.bin and extract it just like additional component based on checkbox click. you can verify that crack.bin in your installer itself, then.

You should rather put your "Crack" folder in source than in application installation location. I prefer that.

[Files]
Source: "{src}\Crack\*"; DestDir: "{app}"; Check: ApplyCrack

function ApplyCrack: Boolean;
begin
  Result := Checkbox[1].IsChecked;
end;

Is there a way to add a serial key page using this style? I am new to this!

You can refer Example_QuickMsg_3.iss from the main post

How do I activate the lock screen on this as in the example the lock screen does not appear to work.

I have a CustomForm: FCustomFluentWindow on which I have a 'browse' button for Directory change. When I click on it, I have DirBrowseDlg: FFLuentDirBrowse, which keeps flickering. The reason it is flickering is because the CustomForm is still open. If I close that CustomForm, the flickering stop.

@Blackfire, please acknowledge this issue to either fix it, or as a workaround I'm closing the CustomForm when 'Browse' button is clicked, but want Custom.Show after the user clicks on 'Ok'/'Cancel' on DirBrowseDlg. Can anybody help me with code snippet?

I might need
procedure ButtonOnMouseClick(ButtonIndex: Integer; Event: TNotifyEvent);

Even with this solution, we would still require an event listener like:
procedure ButtonOnMouseClick(ButtonIndex: Integer; Event: TNotifyEvent);

or else how will it enter @CommonOnClick code block, without creating custom buttons for ok and cancel.

FMXInno Custom Shapes:

Is it boring to use regular shapes every time? if so, you can start creating your own shapes to use in FMXInno.

-- Frequent Requests from the FMXInno Community --

* Users frequently ask how to play videos (locally/web) through WebView2.
* it's not a big deal; it can be done using a simple HTML file and/or just HTML content.

- So, i decided to give you some examples. in the attachment, you'll find 6 examples related to this.

- Here, i've used inline-CSS for styles and ease of use. but you don't have to do it this way; you can have a separate CSS file (Style.css) for this purpose.

- As i mentioned before, you can achieve this in two ways: either by generating an HTML file at runtime or by using HTML content instead of a file. however, there're some limitations with HTML content. with this approach, you may not have the auto-run feature, and you need to do folder mapping for resources. so, i personally prefer generating an HTML file at runtime; it's much easier.

- It's possible to control video playback (pause, resume, stop, etc.) through WebView2 by injecting JavaScript into the HTML file loaded in the WebView2 control. you can call these JavaScript functions from FMXInno code using the ExecuteScript method of WebView2.

- Also, you'll find a simple tool (_TxtToDelphiStr.exe) in the attachment that converts an HTML file to a Delphi/Inno string, saving you time.

- The HTML content in the examples is not exactly the same as the output of '_TxtToDelphiStr.exe' because i've made some necessary changes to make everything work. so, don't get things mixed up.

- I've updated the WebView2 to the latest version in the FMXInno DLL.

- These examples are only for Windows 10 and Windows 11 as WebView2 requires the 'WebView2 Runtime' to be installed on the system.

- Alternatively, download the WebView2 Runtime manually for unsupported systems. Download Microsoft WebView2

What are the chances that Epic Games updated their UI few days after I created an installer that looks like it. Draining all my efforts

They specifically looked at your installer to change the design. Gabe told me himself.

Any idea how can I bring this section to the front in case of using WebView? When using FImage, on the click of Downloads button I'm doing DownloadInfo.BringToFront; which doesn't seem to be working in case of FWebView.

As an alternate, I'm hiding the FWebView when the Download Info section is opened, but it looks clumsy and not good. If we can display this over it, would be really good.

Hi @Blackfire,

I personally believe that WebView has too much of unexplored potential just like FNewINI and there are numerous amount of possibility with it.
- Can we have SetBounds and IsVisible parameters on FWebView2Obj?
- Can we make it dependent on FRectangle handles completely instead of FMXForm.Handle?

I might be asking for more features on it.
Including these parameters will help me to add WebView in my Steam Limitless installer.
