May 6, 201411 yr Hi, I am making a Filemaker solution for a horse yard and need to be able to restrict access to certain tabs on the home screen if the horse is not a livery. Â How would this be done? Â Thanks, Conor Â

May 6, 201411 yr Another idea is to not use the tab part of the tab panel for navigation, but rather "float" buttons near the tab panel. Then, with FM13, you can hide the buttons conditionally.
May 6, 201411 yr Keep in mind that "restricting access" to a part of a layout (such as a tab control pane) does not really restrict access to the data shown there.
