Troi Automatisering releases Troi Dialog Plug-in 5.5.4 for FileMaker Pro 11
Troi Dialog Plug-in updated for FileMaker Pro 11.
Alphen aan den Rijn, The Netherlands, October 11th, 2011--Troi Automatisering today announced the immediate availability of Troi Dialog Plug-in 5.5.4 for FileMaker Pro 11.
What is Troi Dialog Plug-in?
Troi Dialog Plug-in is a very powerful tool for
displaying all sorts of dialogs in FileMaker Pro 11. The text
of the dialog and of the buttons can be created dynamically
by using a calculation. All from within FileMaker you
can:
- show an input dialog to let a user input data in up
to 15 fields and up to 4
buttons
- choose these input fields to be any of the following:
simple text, password field, popup list or check box
- show a list dialog or very big text dialog
- show temporary flash screens
- show a progress bar for lengthy operations
- add a standard icon or your own custom icons, now also with transparent PNGs
- present a slideshow of images and movies fullscreen
What is new in version 5.5.4?
Troi Dialog Plug-in 5.5.4 is a maintenance release, but also adds a few enhancements:
- Improved the Dial_ProgressBar function: you can now press the ESC key to stop the dialog, by adding the switch: "-StopOnESC".
- (Mac OS X) Improved the the Dial_Dialog function, so that the title is now visible. Note that this change only occurs in FileMaker Pro 11.
- Added a switch "-TitlesInProgressBarDialogs" to the Dial_SetPreference function. When you set this to "off"
the ProgressBar title is set to blank for all subsequent calls of the ProgressBar dialog.
- (Mac OS X) Fixed a bug in the Dial_Dialog function when running FileMaker Pro 11, where after typing several characters they would end up in the FileMaker file under the dialog.
- Fixed a bug in the Dial_ProgressBar function, with the handling of blocking alert dialogs that can appear below the ProgressBar Dialog.
- Fixed a bug with the Dial_InputDialog function and FileMaker Pro 9 where copy and paste did not work.
- Updated User Guide and Overview.fp7 to reflect the added functionality.
Suggested uses
- give your users better and flexible feedback
- show quick instructions without the user having to
dismiss the dialog
- build multi-language systems more easily
- make your solutions look more professional by using
your own icons and title bars in dialogs
- control the way users type in data: you can, for
example, let them type more than 10 and less than 40
characters
- show a slideshow of images selected from a found set, for example all images with water as a keyword
- measure time like for a race or the efficiency of 2 differently implemented scripts.
All these features also work in a runtime solution. We invite you to test drive the new
functions and see what you can do with it!
