Filemaker 12 Global Field Behavior Change?

[James Gill]

I'm currently working on moving a rather large .fp7 file into .fp12. One of the strange issues I've encountered is that apparently any script with a "Show Custom Dialog" script step that has an Input field defined as a global field is not saving the user entered value into that global field.

This is very strange behavior and it works perfectly in Filemaker 11. The only way to fix it is to complete replace the Show Custom Dialog script step that was imported into FM12 with the FM12 script step.

Has anybody else encountered this?

There is a change in FM12 to custom dialogs. See KB.
