Recently we noticed a new idea on the FileMaker Community, a wish to extend the custom functions dialog with some useful capabilities to execute a custom function or check the syntax. And that's what wish was my puzzle for the weekend to solve. I remembered we had something like this in FileMaker as database: Formatting and error checking expressions in FileMaker, where you can enter a formula, format syntax and check for errors. Let's put that from a script to C++ and do it within the plugin: As you see we got two new buttons for the custom script editor dialog in FileMaker Pro. When you click Check Syntax, we take your expression and build a test expression aroun…

One of our clients asked for how to create payment QR-Codes in FileMaker and we just made him a new example for this. You may prepare the data, but then you can use MBS Plugin to create the barcode and put it as picture in a container and print it on your invoice. Or you use DynaPDF to draw it as vector graphics to keep it sharp. Here is the main script with the full calculation to assemble the text for the barcode: # EPC-QR-Code generation # Go to Layout [ “Tabelle” ; Animation: None ] # Sample data for QR-Code. May need adjustment to final standard Set Variable [ $text ; Value: // Service Tag "BCD" & ¶ & // …

In this article I want to introduce you the new functions from the MBS FileMaker Plugin in version 11.0. Drag & Drop Let's start with the functions that are new in the DragDrop component. You can now create a drag drop area over the whole working window. The DragDrop.AttachToWindow function disables FileMaker's drop handler and installs the plugin one to the window. You can also drag things out of a drop zone. To do this, you can use DragDrop.SetFilePathsToDrag to specify a list of paths to where the files should be taken. With DragDrop.SetDragImage you can set an image that should be displayed when this object is dragged. If we do not set an image, we have a…

Did you know you can configure the capabilities of the WebViewer in FileMaker using MBS FileMaker Plugin functions? If you take a close look on the WebView.SetPreferences function for MacOS and iOS, you find a couple of options to set. Let's take a look on the most important options and what each option sets: minimumFontSize You may load some HTML into the web viewer, like the content of an email. Since you don't know the font sizes, you can define a minimum font size for the content. For example use 12 point for fonts as minimum: Set Variable [$r; Value: MBS("WebView.SetPreferences"; "web"; "minimumFontSize"; 12) ] javaScriptEnabled If you show an e…

For MBS FileMaker Plugin we recently added a new DynaPDF.SetPageBreakExpression function. Have you seen it? It allows you to define a page break expression. This calculation is evaluated when a text rectangle is filled with text and we need a new page or a new rectangle on the same page. Look on this sample database with three columns filled over many pages with one big text block: Here is a sample call for DynaPDF.SetPageBreakExpression: As you see this calculation gets called when the text rectangle is filled. It uses a Let statement to compound multiple statements and first increases the CurrentColumn variable. If we have room left, we define a ne…

As you may know we have a great Optimize command for DynaPDF. You can use it on PDF documents in both FileMaker and Xojo plugins. Over time the command got more and more powerful and we like to write here about some of the features. In general the function rebuilds the content stream of all pages, templates, patterns, annotations, and form fields. This may remove errors in the content stream and produce a consistent document. When you specify the flags, the default flag value (0) just rebuilds the content stream and fixes errors. You may specify "InMemory" to have changes made in a way, that the PDF is in memory and not flushed to the current output. Normally y…

Hi, I want to create a preferably automatically-updated table (Monthly Sales Report) that tallies the daily sales qtys for multiple items - see PDF attached. PM = Past Month totals; Tot = total of the individual columns ie Single, King Single, Long Single, Double, Queen, King. If not an automatic solution, could I create a looped routine to generate data for each item one by one and then populate a page in another layout (copy & paste routine)? I also considered creating sub-summaries and sorting by date, but I couldn't see how to create an elegant summary such as the attached PDF with zero days included. FM data is drawn from MYOB and stored in multipl…

A long term project came to delivery just before Christmas 2020: DynaPDF got a new feature to convert texts to outlines. And it's just a new flag for the Optimize function: ConvTextToOutlines. The benefit of this conversion is that you can send the PDF to a printer shop and be sure that it will look exactly as you need. No font trouble, no missing fonts and no font rendering issues. Please note that the process is not reversible. Once the text is converted, the text is gone. Just the look of the text stays, so you need OCR to convert it back to text. Copy & Paste is not possible for outlines, but for some uses this may be desired. To show you what…

You may know FileMaker has the possibility to save records as PDF to a file. From time to time clients ask how to script to get the PDF into a record. We like to show you a sample script on what you can do and run this either on server (e.g. triggered from FileMaker Go) or on client. The script takes the record ID as parameter. We switche to the target layout and the correct record based on the record ID to setup the context. That's important as on a server we need to setup context ourselves. On a client you can skip this, if you know you are on the right record already. We build a file path for the temporary PDF document named "temp.pdf". On a server with multip…
