FileMaker Tools

FileMaker Cross Platform Notifications

Keep your users informed with the use of simple notifications. Using FileMaker and a service called Pushover we can easily leverage cross platform notifications with advanced features like message priority, which allows you to repeat a notification until the user acknowledges it.

FileMaker Portal In-Line Progress Bar

The Portal In-Line Progress Bar, one of FileMaker 15’s new performance-based features, brings with it the separation of a layout’s non-portal and portal rendering tasks. This means users are no longer forced to wait for cumbersome portals to load before being able to interact with a window’s content. https://www.dbservices.com/articles/filemaker-portal-in-line-progress-bar/ dbservices.com

Web Development

FileMaker WebDirect Phone Support

FileMaker WebDirect has been redesigned to be compatible with mobile phones. In the previous release, FileMaker added support for tablet browsers. FileMaker 15 takes it a step further by providing support for mobile phones. Although you could access WebDirect with a phone before, it was not officially supported, mainly due to dialogs being too small for user interaction. https://www.dbservices.com/articles/filemaker-webdirect-phone-support/ dbservices.com
