Please Help! Edit Field Size Problem!

[jhend60]

Hi all at Indigo Rose.
I am designing an installer for my game, and am trying to get the verify serial page to look like a commercial game installer ([___]-[___]-[___]-[___]). I need to have separate edit fields (4) separate, like most games do. I have achieved this (with all the coding needed), but cannot make the boxes any smaller. They look to large and do not look good (even though I set their column sizes to 1). How can I make the edit fields smaller using run-time code or some other form of modification? Please help.

Shouldn't there be a way of changing an objects width?
If possible, could someone help me make a screen that looks like a commercial game installer cd key verifier?

Thanks. Please reply ASAP.

Also, is there any way to put a (-) as a caption of text between each of the boxes? I would like to do this to ensure people do not place a (-) in the serial, which would of course mean people complain that their serial is wrong.

(i do have latest version of Setup Factory)


PS If this feature is not implemented, could someone help me code it manually? (I am new to the coding system of this)

have a look at a custom screen -- you can set the size as you wish.

Again, look at the custom screen.
