Hi.
I know there are tools out like Packages that allow you to modify the Installation process of an PKG as you would like to have it (text and background).
Is there any way to do this on for example the Quick-Add package?
Thanks,
Maik

How to change the Background of the QuickAdd Package?
+9Best answer by tron_jones
If all your after is a background image. You can take your QuickADD.pkg and open it up. Right click show package contents, and navigate to the "Resources" folder. Take your image you want to be the background and copy it into the "Resources" folder. Once you have the image in the folder right click the image and go to "get info". Rename your image to "background" and remove the extension from the picture. All this does is add a picture to the background but you can't customize where its placed or displayed.

+18If you can't, you also have the option of repackaging it with Packages/Iceberg/etc by making the Quickadd package a payload with a postflight script that installs it. Then you can have whatever interface you'd like.
+24I would do like @alexjdale mentions above and drop into Packages. packages.app lets you add intro text screens, backgrounds that you can place in a few different locations and even multiple localizations if that happens to be important to you.
one thing I wish packages.app could do it take an existing flat or bundle package and use it as its source to start with, or do like Composer can do and unwrap it in a sense.
+9I would suggest you go with @alexjdale][/url method. It would always be cleaner to repackage it. In the case you don't feel like that you can just add more files to the resource folder. For the introduction you create a file (.txt, .rtf ,) drag it to the resources folder and again strip the extension from it.
For the introduction screen the file must be named "Welcome" a read me file can be added using the file name "ReadMe". These are case sensitive.
Update: To add a License page, add the file named "License".
