I have tried modifying the set of WixVariables in my Product.wxs like so:
<WixVariable Id="MainLogoBmp" Value="Resources/Images/weblabel.jpg" />
<WixVariable Id="WixUIBannerBmp" Value="Resources/Images/installer_banner.jpg" />
(The first part is what I tried, the one below it is an example of the stock variable that works)
...and then referencing the variable with !(wix.MainLogoBmp):
<Control Id="Bitmap"
Type="Bitmap"
X="0"
Y="0"
Width="258"
Height="185"
TabSkip="no"
Text="!(wix.MainLogoBmp)" />
...but when I try to compile this I get the following error:
Error 17 ICE17: Bitmap: 'Resources/Images/weblabel.jpg' for Control: 'Bitmap' of Dialog: 'SimpleDlg' not found in Binary table
And yes the image is part of the project, set to "Content" like the other ones.
Aha, turns out I needed to add a Binary
element to the file:
<Binary Id="MainImage" SourceFile="Resources/Images/weblabel.jpg" />
...and to set the Text
of the Bitmap Control
to "MainImage":
<Control Id="Bitmap"
Type="Bitmap"
X="0"
Y="0"
Width="258"
Height="185"
TabSkip="no"
Text="MainImage" />
and now it works. :)
