Card Windows In WebDirectĬard windows were hugely popular when they were introduced into the platform, allowing for a new window to layered on top of the existing window but with a different table context. And you can save a FileMaker file as an add-on, which will undoubtedly lead to a plethora of quick, easy and useful add-ons being released by the community. In Claris’s ongoing effort to simplify the complex and have anyone be able to create problem solving apps, Add-ons will be coming to the platform soon, allowing for the easy enhancement of your apps by adding things like kanban boards, photo galleries and more with just a click and quick configuration.

To support the enhanced JavaScript integration and increasing use of other web services, a new script step has been added that allows data from your tables to be retrieved in JSON format, a common way that data is passed back and forth between different platforms. This simplified two-way communication is hugely powerful, a game changer for the platform and we’re going to see a massive amount of utilization of this feature.
