        I saw it dude, this is not what I asked for!!! I asked for GUI designer ex. I don't want to write configuration .xml files manually even writing .qs files really exhausting procedure specially I didn't find any documentation talk bout this kind of scripting.

          Hi mbnoimi.
          Unfortunately not. But it would be great to have such plugin to a Creator.

            +1 Indeed.
            By the way, it seems that script to IFW isn't documented yet. does it?

                I know it, it contains many ambiguous things ex. script space of most important variables installer & component. There is no auto completion or reference to their sub-routine.

                Did you try to use IFW by yourself? Personally I tried and I found it very ambiguous.

                        Actually it doesn't work perfectly just like other installers (ex. NSIS) specially in case of dealing with OS privileges (I face huge problem with Windows 7 where it was working smoothly in Linux) for that I left it and I found IFW a promising solution specially it's Qt based so I can integrate it into my usual Qt projects... Voila

                        By the way, where IFW users it seems no one use it!!!!

                          I found "this wiki page":https://qt-project.org/wiki/BuildingQtInstallers which talks about installer choices for Qt.
