Mouse Over

[simoncpage]

Is there anyway to have a mouse over field - that maybe opens up a text field so all is seen rather than clicking....

Or does anyone know of something similiar?

Hi Simon,

As far as I know, there is no native way in FileMaker to do what you want to do.

Here are two files that show how to do a work around.

There may be a Plugin available somewhere that can do this, but I'm not aware of it.

The Simple Help plugin from 24U does this. http://www.24usoftware.com
