SB5 Professional Edition (RC1) build #1103 - still some bugs

1. Shortcuts.
Created Menu in the Programs ... - does not shows associated icon for the
CHM file type (but for the same CHM file for the other programs - shows!!)

4. Some worst on the screen. I use Radio Buttons Dialogue to select Clarion
version. It works good but screen looks not really good (see image). The
Radio buttons too much closed to the text above. I have tried to put some
extra line into Dialogue Properties but it always like this... It seems that
Radio buttons has a fixed position.

Thank you.

Hi,

Unfortunately, we cannot reproduce this here :-( The installer uses
standard Windows APIs to create the Shortcut. Windows automatically
displays the "help" icon for .chm files (see screenshot).

This is not a bug. Please remove the CR/LF and change your text into
"..with this product. Please choose to..."

BTW, the next SB5 update (5.1) comes with a dialog editor and you can create
your own dialogs.

Yes, it seems strange but... The problem appeared if I create the Shortcut
for the Clarion product instal so I use "Detect Clarion version" script:

::Create Shortcut "[PRODUCTNAME] Documentation" to
"Programs\%CLARION_ACCESSORIES%\[PRODUCTNAME]\[PRODUCTNAME] Documentation"
(Always Install)

Take a look at LNK file - seems normal but (and it shows on the Property
that this is HTML compiled file!). The link to Uninstall program (in the
same instalation) is shown correct! See image. Have no idea why.

I have other setup file for non clarion product and there shortcut icon
shown correct!! See image.

Very strange.

Hmm. This is not a solution. I want to put more information here and it
takes more lines but it seems fixed with 3 lines only...

What happens if you click that help shortcut? Does it open the help? Seems
to me the path to the help is incorrect, so Windows displays this icon.
