Just a quick question for clarification after reading the 360Works website, this relates to using the plug-in's functions directly, rather than using the plug-in to create a new plug-in:

1. Can the free version of Scriptmaster 4 be used in RunTime solutions which are distributed to users legally, or do you need the paid-for Advanced version to allow this licensing? (The website says, "Yes, all of our plugins work in FileMaker runtimes solutions, just copy the plugin to the runtime's Extensions folder." but it doesn't mention licensing).

2. Will all versions of the plug-in (free and advanced), automatically load in a runtime solution (if placed correctly in the extensions folder) or will the user need to action something further to enable the functions?

Thanks!

1. You are free to distribute scriptmaster 4 free with your runtime solution. The paid version of scriptmaster 4 is for creating custom plugins, which you would use instead of having to register modules.

2. Yes, scriptmaster will load just like it does in the full version. The plugin loads on startup and then you will need to register the modules you wish to use in a script through the RegisterGroovy function, just like you would in the full version. ScriptMaster 4 Advanced will allow you to generate custom plugins. If you make a custom plugin you will not need to write or run the RegisterGroovy script steps, and can just bundle your custom plugin with your solution and be good to go.

Many thanks indeed for the clarification!
