I want the installer to skip showing setup type screen (where you can choose Typical, Custom, Complete features), How can I do this? I provided only one feature set named product. And I also want the user be able to change the installation directory.

I changed from WixUI_Mondo to WixUI_InstallDir. And it worked. Note: you have to add a
, or you will get a 2189 error when setting up. Check the document of WIXUI_INSTALLDIR for more details. – deerchao Dec 08 '09 at 08:14

If you only require the user to customize the installation folder, use:
<UIRef Id="WixUI_InstallDir" />
If you don't permit customization of the installation folder, use:
<UIRef Id="WixUI_Minimal" />
Chances are you're using one of the built in libraries that does include the Feature Tree selction, i.e.
- WixUI_Mondo
- WixUI_FeatureTree
- WixUI_Advanced

hi, i dont want to provide feature screen (i.e. typical,custom and complete) and i have created some custom dialogues those are required to show up so i think i cant use WixUI_Mondo. if i am using WixUI_Advanced then it gives me error "Error 1 Unresolved reference to symbol 'WixUI:WixUI_Advance' in section 'Fragment:'. D:\Projects\WixDemoWPFAppVS2012\WixDemoWPFAppVS2012\WixDemoWPFAppVS2012\Setup\WixDemoWPFAppVS2012.Setup\GUI.wxs 41 1 WixDemoWPFAppVS2012.Setup" i am confused here – Finisher001 Jun 17 '13 at 11:33

My application only has a licence screen then installation directory screen, and I use this configuration block to-do it:
<Property Id="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR" Value="INSTALLLOCATION" />
<UIRef Id="WixUI_InstallDir" />
<WixVariable Id="WixUILicenseRtf" Value="License.rtf" />
just before the end of my </Product> tag. All the application installs into INSTALLLOCATION in the <Directory> section.
The WixUI dialog library guide might help explain the options
