Graphical Installer Wizard is user friendly tool for creating skinned Graphical Installer Powered Installers. If you installed Graphical Installer Wizard with automated installer then it should be configured correctly. Otherwise do following steps:

Part A - Installation check

• A. Open Eclipse (from Start menu of by doubleclicking on its icon located on your desktop).

• B. In main menu, next to the menu EclipseNSIS or Window you can see a new item – Graphical Installer. Click it and you see six sub-items.
  
  
  
  If you can see this menu then Graphical Installer Wizard was installed correctly and you can go to step 3 Configure and then Launch the Graphical Installer Wizard.

  Tip:
  All commands from this menu are also available throught the Eclipse toolbar. Click appropriate icon in toolbar to perform specific action.
  

Troubleshooting:

• If you cannot see the Graphical Installer Wizard menu from picture above then please check your Eclipse plug-ins directory (Eclipse\Plugins) for presence of file sk.unsigned.softworks.giw_1.14.01.jar.
• Plug-in is being copied here during the setup process of Graphical Installer. Make a sure you checked it during installation of Graphical Installer.
  
  
  
  
• If everything went correctly then you can see this file in Eclipse SDK Installation Details window: Launch Eclipse and click Help -> About Eclipse SDK -> Installation details (tab Plug-ins).
  
  
  
  
• If you still cannot see it please do the Manual installation and start Part A again.
• 
  
  

  Part B - Configuration of plug-in

  Tip:
  You need to do this whole procedure only once - when launching the Wizard for the very first time. For next time the settings are remembered in .ini file.

  • 1. Open Eclipse (with EclipseNSIS) if you have closed it.

  • 2. In main menu, next to the menu Help (?) you can see a new item – Graphical Installer. Click it and you see six sub-items.
    
    

  • 3. Click Configure item (or press Ctrl+Alt+F11).

    Tip:
    If you had Eclipse (with EclipseNSIS) already installed, everything is set automatically during the setup process, so all you need is to check whether paths are correct.

  • 4. Configuration dialog is shown.
    
    
    
    If shown paths are correct go to point 6. Otherwise continue with next point.

  • 5. Click the button Browse and select appropriate files:
    - For Compiler option browse to NSIS directory and select makensis.exe
    - For Graphical Installer option browse to NSIS\Graphical Installer directory and select GraphicalInstaller_functions.nsh

  • 6. When done click OK to save changes. Graphical Installer Wizard is now configured.

  Warning:
  If you reinstall NSIS or move it to other directory you need to update these settings. If something goes wrong the Wizard dialog will show an error message to inform you to change settings.

  
  Now you can continue with Launching a Graphical Installer Wizard.
