DisplayTEXT is an Installer Startup Function that allows you to display the TEXT for a Read Me document or licensing agreement before installation begins.
This document contains a brief summary of the Known Bugs for the DisplayTEXT Installer Startup Function.
KNOWN BUGS
• If the TEXT resources containing the licensing agreement or Read Me are fewer lines than will fill the DisplayTEXT dialog, the DisplayTEXT Startup Function will appear to hang before displaying the text. The text may or may not eventually display.
WORKAROUND: The TEXT resources must contain enough lines of text to reach the bottom of the DisplayTEXT dialog (about 15-19). This can be done by adding a bunch of returns at the end of your text.
• Buttons and instructions are always displayed in the default language. (They don't change as you switch languages). This was a last minute work around to avoid a bug in which when a Language kit is installed but the default application and System Fonts remain the same and cannot display the 2-byte characters appropriately. This will be better addressed in the future.
• The "Print" alert has not yet been localized. The Alert will read "Unable to print. Make sure you’ve selected a printer." for all languages.
