My Inno Setup program have a custom "input file page" that was created using CreateInputFilePage
.
How can I disable the NextButton
in this page until the file path is properly picked by the user?
In other words, I need to make the NextButton
unclickable while the file selection form is empty, and clickable when the file selection form is filled.
Thank you.
The easiest way is to use NextButtonClick
to validate the inputs and display an error message when the validation fails.
var
FilePage: TInputFileWizardPage;
procedure InitializeWizard();
begin
FilePage := CreateInputFilePage(wpSelectDir, 'caption', 'description', 'sub caption');
FilePage.Add('prompt', '*.*', '.dat');
end;
function NextButtonClick(CurPageID: Integer): Boolean;
begin
Result := True;
if (CurPageID = FilePage.ID) and
(Length(FilePage.Edits[0].Text) = 0) then
begin
MsgBox('Please select a file.', mbError, MB_OK);
WizardForm.ActiveControl := FilePage.Edits[0];
Result := False;
end;
end;
If you really want to update the "Next" button state while the input changes, it is a bit more complicated:
procedure FilePageEditChange(Sender: TObject);
begin
WizardForm.NextButton.Enabled := (Length(TEdit(Sender).Text) > 0);
end;
procedure FilePageActivate(Sender: TWizardPage);
begin
FilePageEditChange(TInputFileWizardPage(Sender).Edits[0]);
end;
procedure InitializeWizard();
var
Page: TInputFileWizardPage;
Edit: TEdit;
begin
Page := CreateInputFilePage(wpSelectDir, 'caption', 'description', 'sub caption');
{ To update the Next button state when the page is entered }
Page.OnActivate := @FilePageActivate;
Edit := Page.Edits[Page.Add('prompt', '*.*', '.dat')];
{ To update the Next button state when the edit contents changes }
Edit.OnChange := @FilePageEditChange;
end;
