How To See File Path?

[charlie12342]

FileMaker 15.0.2 file path is not available with Command-click on header of database view in browse mode.

Running OSX 10.11.3.

Not sure what you mean; just tried this in both FM15 and 14 and neither works.  What's the header?  Part of the FM app or part of the layout?

You can always get the file path in the data viewer by using the Get(FilePath) function.

Thanks for reply.

In the Mac Finder, the window has its name at center of top of window (right of the red-yellow-green dots). For example - Contacts Database.

In the Mac Finder, Command-click on the file name usually shows a drop-down file path. I want to be able to check location of a FM Pro file without doing a file name search in the Finder.

This is only true for a certain type of windows. You can recognize these by the icon to the left of  the window title. Filemaker windows are not of this type (I presume there are security reasons behind this decision).

Thanks! That answers my question.
