(In layman's terms: No more waiting for a whole file to download before taking action!) This improvement provides web-like performance and huge gains in usability, a definite win for developers and users alike. Now, container fields progressively stream your data (images, movies, pdfs, etc,), thus allowing you to navigate away like when loading a web page in a browser. Overall, themes and the new layout engine are very exciting improvements and will definitely provide more powerful theme/layout features in coming releases.Ī huge improvement in FileMaker 12 has to do with containers. FileMaker 12 doesn't allow editing CSS3 code directly‚ you need to use the Inspector to visual edit the theme one layout at a time.
It's still the same one-layout-at-a-time technique as in prior versions of FileMaker. Though you are limited to roll those features out to other layouts in an efficient manner. This is good news as CSS3 allows the interface to be more modern and web-like in nature.ĬSS3 allows for some really cool features like rounded corners, gradients, and hover over. Perhaps the biggest news with the release of FileMaker 12 product line is it starts over with a new layout engine with Themes based on CSS3. Below we will look at the FileMaker 12 product lines: FileMaker Pro 12, FileMaker Go 12, and FileMaker Server 12.
This means it is not backward compatible. The new version of FileMaker 12 is here! Before we dive into all the features, note that version 12 is a file format change from fp7 to fmp12.
