WiX is great in that there is no GUI, you just write the installer you want it to be. No fiddling with GUI-wizards!

However, drawing GUI is actually one thing I prefer to use a GUI for.

So, is there any Dialog-drawing program which exports WiX-data?
(I suppose else-wise perhaps I could transform what Visual Studio's forms editor does to WiX-XML.)

I'm referencing a WiX extension in a WiX library project. This WiX library project is itself referenced by my main WiX MSI project. Why does the main project have to also reference the WiX extension, even though it doesn't directly need it? I'd like to keep my wixlib's as self-contained as possible… >>> More
