Did you notice that MBS FileMaker Plugin 15.2 includes a new feature to add keyboard shortcuts for the result data types for a formula?

If you visit the manage database dialog, you can use keyboard shortcuts to pick data types for a field:

Text ⌘ T
Number ⌘ N
Date ⌘ D
Time ⌘ T
Timestamp ⌘ M
Container ⌘ R
Calculation ⌘ L
Summary ⌘ S

If you define the formula, you get a dialog like the one shown above. The MBS Plugin looks for the popup menu on the bottom left and adds the same shortcuts for the data types. If it finds the menu, it adds the shortcuts to the menu entries. This way you can press e.g. command-T to pick text. 

Just a little convenience, but our clients asked us for it. Enjoy!
