Again, rather sophisticated workflows and design can be achieved by those who aren’t skilled developers.ĪES 256 Encryption: Securing data is a prime concern when creating any software. In addition, in-the-box scripts and conditional formatting allow you to control what happens in different fields and forms under actions you specify. The best thing about these new capabilities is that you don't need to know how to program to add them. To enhance the mobile UI experience, you can also add objects such as slide and tab control buttons. Popovers can provide users with additional information or instructions when they click (or touch) on a field. For instance, you can now add features that are common in mobile device apps such as popover buttons on fields. More Mobile Support: Of course, as the tech world continues to go mobile, the team at FileMaker has provided new ways to make apps more mobile device-friendly, especially with touchscreens. Custom themes and styles can be saved and then applied across multiple layouts and databases. Version 13 introduces Styles – attributes such as colour, font size, and so on – which are applied to database components such as fields, buttons and backgrounds. New featuresĬustom Themes and Styles: FileMaker Pro 12 introduced 40 new (and gorgeous) layout themes. The basics of FileMaker have not changed significantly since we last looked at version 12, so this review will focus on the key new features in version 13. In addition to creating a "from scratch" database app or using a template, you can also create a new empty database and import data from TXT, CSV, or XLS files, and other file types – as well as from XML and ODBC data sources. FP7 format can be converted to version 13 and then opened in the latest version. One caveat about getting started: Those currently using FileMaker databases should be aware that FileMaker 13 only works with databases created under FileMaker 12 and 13. You can use the solutions "right out of the box," or customise them for your business or personal needs. These templates, called "Starter Solutions," are pre-designed database apps that include apps for event management, product cataloguing, time billing, and more. Experienced users can dive right in and create a new database or use one of the many database templates.
