how to make fancy layout?

[Jade Yoyo]

I saw a lot of fancy layout, but when I want to design my

own layout, why can I just see some very simple components

available on the right side, I even can't find the "check"

and "radio" button there, I am now using Filemaker Pro 5.5.

Do I need another version, or Just set some options?

Thanks a lot

Go to the Sample Files forum and download some of the templates from there... start with those layouts and re-assemble them into what you want. Most people should not be building such from scratch... only if you have some peculiar needs.

If I just want to some simple "check" or radio option and property pages, I think filemaker should provide some simple components. where can I find it? thanks again

Select the field on the layout you wnat to format, and then right click (don't know about a Mac), choose Field Format. Click the 2nd radio button and look at the value list.
