you will need to use slide panels and a button bar or regular buttons to navigate to a tab and conditionally hide the buttons

i can't remember if horizontal alignment works on wd - but in order to only show one or two rows of text you could use padding so that you don't see partial cut off text.

you could count the length of the field - and have a "...read more" popover -

there isn't a function in WD that will slide objects accordingly. you have to set it to the largest item or a smaller item and a disclosure popover to show more content.

FileMaker Remote containers differ from SuperContainer. FileMaker does its job by trying to only maintain one copy of a given attachment therefore in your example above for the open storage - many developers will include the unique ID or some other primary key to the path. "CHECK_LIST_DATA/Container_lxr/" & Table::UUID & "/" or "CHECK_LIST_DATA/Container_lxr/" & Table::ID & "/" this will create a folder for each attachment where that attachment will reside. Plus if your storing them in OPEN manner you may have some means of matching records to attachments should something go sideways. (with secure containers all bets are off) I believe FMP does a md5 check on the path and attachment and if it already exists may create internal hard links to the other records. All developers recommend not messing with remote container folders so as not to break connection to the record. In one project I used a path of: folder & "/" where folder was a field. Choose ( Length ( _ID_Image ) ; "0" ; "0000" ; //1 "0000" ; //2 "0000" ; //3 Left ( _ID_Image ; 1 ) & "000" ; //4 Left ( _ID_Image ; 2 ) & "000" ; //5 Left ( _ID_Image ; 3 ) & "000" ; //6 Left ( _ID_Image ; 4 ) & "000" ; //7 ) based on the length of the image id it would place images in to folders of 1000 to be more performant you don't want a directory of 30k images. depending on the nature of the file I have also name spaced the folders to be YYYY / MM / ID so that you can get a sense of when files were uploaded. If needed adjust backup of files that are ancient and seldom change. SuperContainer only stores a url to the file. And it has the added advantage so that you can obfuscate the URL by a UUID and then send that link to a third party where they can see the attachment, pdf / zip - I have used it in the past as a way to send large files, and only emailng a link - and not need a third party service to transfer large files. one thing to be aware of is the hard limit of file path on windows - i think 256 characters including / and spaces.

You have zero page margins on the top, bottom, and right. possibly your currently defined printer may not accommodate zero print margins.

from the parent table you can do a Count ( child::boolean ) and a Sum ( child::boolean ) the count would give you say 6 child records the Sum would tell you 4 of them are true or 1.

Welcome to the forums Chris. What you are describing is a party model relationship. https://community.filemaker.com/docs/DOC-8358

an FMGo solution might be more ideal then web direct as browser sessions will tend to time out and users will have to repeatedly log in. Just depends on the tasks and information needed.

it should i use that technique all the time - when you mean HIDE are you using conditional formatting or hide object when? - also do one more thing... Set the Layout setup to this as well. Delineate Field frames will cause with sliding and your field borders from displaying.
