The Separation Model Part 25 - Window Management
--------------------------------------------------
Oh, to keep things clean and tidy. That's the feeling
many of us seek much of the time. Things can be found
and seen when they are clean and neat - it also "feels"
better.
These same feelings apply to times when bringing up new
windows within the context of your own solution. Simply
throwing windows all over the place in your FileMaker
solution may invoke that same feeling when you're handed
a business card and it feels like single ply toilet
paper - wimpy.
It's all about perception. Fortunately, you get to
control how windows appear within your FileMaker
solution. With a bit of creative scripting, you can
actually make this happen in a semiautomatic fashion.
Throw in a little bit of Layout Properties and a few
handy custom functions, and you've got a window
management system which is both easy to implement and
use.
Do you use something else which works better? We'd love
to hear about it. Leave a comment.
