Configuring installation packages 75 Configuring package definitions Customizing optional installation panels Symantec Packager lets you customize the optional installation panels that the user sees during an interactive installation. This only applies to generic installation panels, such as the Welcome and Installation Complete panels, not the installation panels that are associated with specific Symantec products. The package must be configured to install in Interactive mode to use custom installation graphics. You can customize the following settings on optional installation panels: ■ Whether optional installation panels display during a package installation ■ Whether an installation panel with technical support information displays ■ The package title that appears on the Welcome and Installation Complete panels ■ The graphics that display on the Welcome and Installation Complete panels Symantec Packager provides installation graphics or you can use your own custom graphics. If you use a custom bitmap that does not adhere to the size and color specifications, the installation program will stretch or shrink the bitmap to the appropriate size. This does not affect how the package installation functions, but it does impact the look of the panels. Use the following specifications if you create your own custom graphics: ■ The top and background bitmaps are limited to 256 colors. ■ The top bitmap measures 500 pixels wide by 58 pixels high. The installation text is configured to appear in the middle of the top graphic, so you should use a similar layout. Figure 7-3 shows an example of a top bitmap and the customizable portion. Figure 7-3 Example of a top bitmap Installation text displays in this region ■ The background bitmap measures 500 pixels wide by 312 pixels high. The graphic is limited to the first 152 pixels going from left to right. Leave the remainder of the bitmap blank so that the graphic does not obscure installation text. Figure 7-4 shows an example of a background bitmap and the customizable portion.
