File Properties

The File Properties dialog is where you can view and edit the properties of a file in your project. It has five tabs: General, Shortcut, Advanced, Conditions, and Packages.

NOTE

 

If you have more than one file selected when you select File Properties, the Multiple File Properties dialog is displayed instead.

General tab

The General tab contains information about the file, and is used to set the destination (i.e. installation) path for the file.

Shortcut tab

The Shortcut tab is where you can control the creation of a shortcut for the file in the Start menu or on the Desktop.

Advanced tab

The Advanced tab is where you can set several advanced settings for the file.

Conditions tab

The Conditions tab is where you can specify the conditions that must be met in order for the file to be installed or included in your installation.

There are two types of conditions: run-time conditions and build-time conditions.

Packages tab

The Packages tab is where you can assign the current file to one or more packages.
