Why not asking whomever made this designer?

That is a commercial extension so'll need to purchase it if you want to activate it, see here.

One of the huge, huge, fantastic benefits of WiX is: it is not visual. It means: no designers, no stupid repetitive and unreliable work adding boxes to the designer window. Everything is done by using normal XML-based declarative language with normal intellisense support. Everything under the developer's control, no auto-generated code, nothing created the way the tool "wants", instead of doing what a developer wants. Comfortable and reliable.
