FileMaker Magazine Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 by Matt Petrowsky 31 minutes Article options Watch Preview Video Watch Full Version Download Movie File Attractive Sorting Indicators Article If videos one and two of this three part series were the "pretty & shiny" parts, then this last part of the series is Vvrooom vroom of the engine - the stuff that backs up the pretty stuff. There are three elegant techniques added into the revised file. The first of the three is a straight-forward implementation of user preferences. While it's simple to put into any FileMaker solution, it's not often the first thought to provide each login account with unique preferences to how they use your FileMaker solution. This one tip will hopefully present the simple elegance in which you can add into many areas of your solution. The second technique is a simplified version of my article titled "Attractive Sorting Indicators". I showcase what the old way was in the starter solution and how you might improve upon this using the newer features in the current release of FileMaker. It's another easy add-on with limited overall cost. The final technique in this three part series is one I called "Easy List Filtering". It capitalizes on FileMaker's new Quick Find feature and provides an easy way for users to filter any list view based on the record they currently have selected. The implementation is pretty simple and can easily be extended quickly to any fields desired. Details: Released - 11/15/2011 / Size - 76.48 MB / Length - 31 min View the full article
