[ANN] MBS 1.5 - Flip, Cube, Swirl, Slide, Swap
February 5th, 2008
geist interactive and Monkey Bread Software are proud to announce the release of version 1.5 of the MBS Plug-in
What's New!
1. Transitions for FileMaker on Mac OS X.
Yes thats right! Now you add some of your favorite Mac OS X Transition effects to your FileMaker solutions. These effects can be applied to the FileMaker window or the whole screen! Use the transitions when you change layouts, go to a new record or any time you want. Sorry PC users, this is a Mac OS X only component.
2. System Info.
Version 1.5 also includes another component which allows you to retrieve information about the computer. You can get the following information
AvailableRAM, ComputerName, MacHasHardwareAcceleratedCoreImage, MacModel, MacSerialNumber, MacUUID, MacVRAMSize, OSName, OSVersionString, PhysicalRAM, SystemFont, UserName, UserShortName
Visit our web site for more information, examples, and demos.
If you purchased the Complete MBS plug-in within the last twelve months then all of these new features and functions are completely free. If you purchased any single component, then you can upgrade to the "complete" component set. If you haven't yet purchased the MBS plug-in, well you have to pay full price. But with over 118 of the most powerful functions known to FileMaker developers, its still a steal.
Remember the MBS Plug-in already includes functions the can do the following:
- Execute SQL on your FileMaker Tables
- Create Audit Logs
- Create, Drop, and Alter FileMaker tables and indexes.
- Update data in other tables on field edit.
- Control Window widgets, buttons, and transparancy.
- Trigger Scripts
- Execute VBScript on windows, and get extended Applescript support on Macintosh.
- Capture Screenshots to container fields
- Store are retrieve session variables
