In the documentation, it mentions there are three options (besides rolling your own UI) for the bootstrapper: RtfLicense, HyperlinkLicense, and Foundation. It further states that if you want to use Foundation you must provide a theme file. I can't find any other documentation. What is this theme file format?
I am using WiX 3.6.x.
If you download the WiX source, those theme files are located in src\ext\BalExtension\wixstdba\Resources.
The RtfTheme is an xml file:

I am using the standard (EulaHyperlink) Burn installer, but added an option the the "Install" page like this:
<Page Name="Install">
<Text X="150" Y="15" Width="-11" Height="100" FontId="2" DisablePrefix="yes">#(loc.WillInstall)</Text>
<Hypertext Name="EulaHyperlink" X="150" Y="-60" Width="-11" Height="17" TabStop="no" FontId="3" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.InstallLicenseLinkText)</Hypertext>
<Checkbox Name="InstallXfemilyCheckbox" X="150" Y="-70" Width="246" Height="17" TabStop="yes" FontId="3" HideWhenDisabled="yes">Veraltete Programme auch installieren</Checkbox>
<Button Name="InstallButton" X="-101" Y="-11" Width="85" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.InstallInstallButton)</Button>
<Button Name="WelcomeCancelButton" X="-11" Y="-11" Width="85" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.InstallCloseButton)</Button>
How do i pass the"checked" or "Not checked" property of that checkbox to the msi?
I do know i can pass properties like this (from the bundle):
<MsiProperty Name="NAME-IN-MSI" Value="Value-Seen-In-MSI"/>
But what is "Value-Seen-In-MSI" in this case? How do i reference the value of the checkbox?
Basically, it goes like this:
The checkbox need to be on the options page. Wix will create a variable with the name of the checkbox. You can refer to it using brackets and define an MSI property. This property can be used like any other.
So, Checkbox like this:
<Page Name="Options">
<Checkbox Name="OptionsBox" X="110" Y="143" Width="200" Height="21" TabStop="yes" FontId="3" />
<Button Name="OptionsOkButton" X="-91" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.OptionsOkButton)</Button>
<Button Name="OptionsCancelButton" X="-11" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.OptionsCancelButton)</Button>
</Page>
Using it in the bundle like this:
<MsiPackage SourceFile="PathToMSI-File.msi">
<MsiProperty Name="OPTIONSVALUE" Value="[OptionsBox]"/>
</MsiPackage>
After that, it is a standard property you can use like any other.
I want to overwrite the error message according to the error code,as the capture show, the error code is 0x80070001, i want to customize the message to show like "failed to install please go to xxx"
The Failure page section in the theme.xml as follow
<Page Name="Failure">
<Text X="11" Y="80" Width="-11" Height="30" FontId="2" DisablePrefix="yes">#(loc.FailureHeader)</Text>
<Hypertext Name="FailureLogFileLink" X="11" Y="121" Width="-11" Height="42" FontId="3" TabStop="yes" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.FailureHyperlinkLogText)</Hypertext>
<Hypertext Name="FailureMessageText" X="22" Y="163" Width="-11" Height="51" FontId="3" TabStop="yes" HideWhenDisabled="yes" />
<Text Name="FailureRestartText" X="-11" Y="-51" Width="400" Height="34" FontId="3" HideWhenDisabled="yes" DisablePrefix="yes">#(loc.FailureRestartText)</Text>
<Button Name="FailureRestartButton" X="-91" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.FailureRestartButton)</Button>
<Button Name="FailureCloseButton" X="-11" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.FailureCloseButton)</Button>
</Page>
i know that code display the error code and message
<Hypertext Name="FailureMessageText" X="22" Y="163" Width="-11" Height="51" FontId="3" TabStop="yes" HideWhenDisabled="yes" />
Can i do something to change the message, according to the error code?
By the way, who provide/generate the error code? The windows OS or Wix?
Thanks
I am creating a wix bootstrapper project which executes 2 msi files sequencially. I want user to have UI which enables user to select msi files to be executed(some what similar to feature selection UI), for that i have added a button on Install Page
<Page Name="Install">
<Richedit Name="EulaRichedit" X="11" Y="80" Width="-11" Height="-70" TabStop="yes" FontId="0" HexStyle="0x800000" />

<Button Name="OptionsButton" X="-171" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0" HideWhenDisabled="yes">#(loc.InstallOptionsButton)</Button>
<Button Name="FeatureButton" X="-11" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0" HideWhenDisabled="yes">Feature</Button>
<Button Name="InstallButton" X="-91" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.InstallInstallButton)</Button>
<Button Name="WelcomeCancelButton" X="-11" Y="-11" Width="75" Height="23" TabStop="yes" FontId="0">#(loc.InstallCloseButton)</Button>
</Page>
Now I want when i click FeatureButton a new page must appear.
Is there any way to do that?
This is not possible with the default Bootstrapper you will need to create your own custom Bootstrapper.
Have a look at this link to get you started:

I'm using the HyperlinkTheme.xml from the WiX 3 github site, with WiX v3.9 R2 to create my installer. When I run my installer, it succeeds, but on the success page it shows all 4 headers overlaying each other (SuccessHeader, SuccessInstallHeader, SuccessRepairHeader, SuccessUninstallHeader). I changed the Y values so they wouldn't display on top of each other:
How do I get it to only show only the pertinent header?
Here is my slightly altered version of HyperlinkTheme.xml:

Here's how I build the installer:
"%WIXDIR%\candle.exe" bundle.wxs -dKarteDir="%KARTEDIR%" -dProductVersion=%PRODUCTVERSION% -dPlatform=%PLATFORM% -dBuildDir=%BUILDDIR% -out "obj\\" -ext WixBalExtension
"%WIXDIR%\light.exe" "obj\bundle.wixobj" -out "%BUILDDIR%\out\mc.exe" -ext WixBalExtension
The theme from GitHub is from the develop branch and has changes from WiX v3.10 that the WixStdBA from v3.9 R2 doesn't know about. You can grab the v3.9 version from wix39-debug.zip on the v3.9 R2 release page.

What do I need to do to have a custom error message when user clicks cancel?
I basically need a condition to evaluate the case where FailureMessageText is "0x80070642 - User cancelled installation"
The failure window should then display "Installation Cancelled by User" instead of "Setup Failed"
Is there any way to evaluate above expression inside the theme and display controls based on a certain condition ?
*EDIT - 30 jan 2014 *
Here is the problem element:
<Page Name="Failure">
...
<Hypertext Name="FailureMessageText" X="22" Y="163" Width="-11" Height="51" FontId="3" TabStop="yes" HideWhenDisabled="yes" />
...
</Page>
I could write:
<Page Name="Failure">
...
<Text Name="MyCustomText" X="-11" Y="-51" Width="400" Height="34" FontId="3" HideWhenDisabled="yes"> My custom message </Text>
...
</Page>
but this will not check if error code is 0x80070642 (user cancelled installation), it is just another hard-coded message.
To display the custom error messages you need to change the messages in WixBootstrapperTheme.wxl file which is pointed by LocalizationFile attribute.
