GUI for Dialog-design for WiX [closed]

Tags:

wix

WiX is great in that there is no GUI, you just write the installer you want it to be. No fiddling with GUI-wizards!

However, drawing GUI is actually one thing I prefer to use a GUI for.

So, is there any Dialog-drawing program which exports WiX-data?
(I suppose else-wise perhaps I could transform what Visual Studio's forms editor does to WiX-XML.)

How do I add a dialogue box in WiX?

You can add custom dialogs to the UI sequence in a built-in WixUI dialog set. To do so, you must define a <UI/> element for your new dialog. Then, you must copy the contents of the <Fragment/> that includes the definition of the dialog set that you want to customize from the WiX source code to your project.

I created a full list of editors for WiX here: https://robmensching.com/blog/posts/2007/11/20/wix-editors/ (which is amazingly still up to date)
