Hello:

what is the variable (if one exists) for the percentage of an operation? Examples: percentage of the 2nd progress bar, percentage of the global progress bar, etc. The reason I am asking for this information is my single file takes awhile to copy thus the global progress bar should read "Dropping Files... Please Wait" then while this file installs the progress text should read "Operation Progress: <insert file progress here>" once that's done, the global progress bar should read something about modifying the registry, then wrap the rest of the setup as normal

Hello,

Interesting question. The percentage of the operation can't be retrieved at script level. We'll investigate if it is possible to add a function to get the percentage of the progress bar(s).

FYI: The new "Get System Info" (Installer Progress Percentage) option in the upcoming maintenance build lets you retrieve the percentage of the global progress bar.
