The Separation Model Part 15 Maintain Layout State
------------------------------------------
Nobody likes a rug being yanked out from underneath them
- to reference the popular phrase. The same thing
applies to your interface and solution. When a user
moves from one layout to another, they're typically not
expecting to come back to something different than when
they left.
The biggest issues with FileMaker retaining layout state
are tabs and portals. In the past, I've covered how you
can move from one record to another and maintain the
selected portal row.
In this video, I present a simple technique for using
the ever popular "back button" feature found in pretty
much every web browser. The video shows how to not only
include this feature, but also how you can return tabs
to their previously selected state - and with very
simple scripts.
If you've rarely found great uses for FileMaker's script
triggers, then this video will provide you with some
great information about using them.
