#1. NEW VIDEO:
----------------------------------
User Friendly Finds
-----------------------
FileMaker 10 offers a ton of new functionality using Script Triggers. It's enough to make the mind wander and start envisioning all the cool drag-n-drop features you can now add to your solutions.
You start down the path of adding in this cool new functionality, then you realize... FileMaker doesn't have a full event model implementation. Any object you drop onto doesn't know anything about the object which was first clicked.
Thinking to yourself, you say "There's got to be a way. FileMaker can always find a way to make it happen." Then you hear it. "True, it can be done". You spin around to see where the voice came from and no one is there. You pause, as you wonder where the mysterious voice came from. "Oh, that's right, it's Matt Petrowsky reminding me that most things can be done in FileMaker."
All fiction aside, here the facts is in all it's glory, the fundamentals needed for the closest thing to true drag-n-drop in FileMaker!

#2. ADD GRADIENTS EASILY USING GRADIENT MAKER
-------------------------------------------------------
Are your layouts looking a bit awkward?
Light and shadows contribute to how we see the world.
Should your layouts be any different?
One of the best ways to enhance the look of your layouts is through the use of gradients.
The problem is creating them. I personally used to use another piece of software (Photoshop). Now I rarely even open it when creating my FileMaker layouts! I can create highly optimized gradients right within FileMaker. A quick drag-n-drop and I'm making better-looking layouts.
Download a copy right now and take a look!
