Customizing Bootstrapper Appearance

 

The bootstrapper images can be customized by changing the following resources:

 

($PackPointDir)\Wrappers\raypack.ico
(where $(PackPointDir) is the PackPoint location)
 
This image represents the icon being displayed in taskbar and in the title bar of the bootstrapper.

 

($PackPointDir)\Wrappers\banner.bmp
(where $(PackPointDir) is the PackPoint location)
 
This image represents the background image of the bootstrapper.

 

Advanced users can specify different default images per-profile. To do so, open a profile with any XML editor, locate the following XML elements
 
ProfileConfiguration/Wrapping/ExeIcon
ProfileConfiguration/Wrapping/ExeWrapper
 
and override them with own values, for example:

 
<Wrapping>

 <CreateWrapper>false</CreateWrapper>

 <OutputType>Compressed</OutputType>

 <ExeIcon>($PackPointDir)\Wrappers\raypack.ico </ExeIcon>

 <ExeHeader>($PackPointDir)\Wrappers\banner.bmp</ExeHeader>

 <CmdTemplates />

</Wrapping>

 

Special variable $(PackPointDir) can be used to avoid hardcoding the PackPoint path.

Be aware:

The default RayPack 7.3 u6 profile does not define any custom images so it might be required to manually create the XML structure described above.
