LibreOffice is a powerful office suite – its clean interface and feature-rich tools help you unleash your creativity and enhance your productivity.
LibreOffice includes several applications that make it the most powerful Free and Open Source office suite on the market.
More easily map imported source data to FileMaker fields using the new Import Field Mapping dialog box. Use type ahead instead of drag and drop for greater efficiency. And specify custom delimiters when importing certain file types.
Provide better app discoverability for your users. Open a specific custom app when launching FileMaker Pro Advanced.
Use a preview release script step to save a copy of a FileMaker file as XML. Use the XML file to more easily compare changes and updates to your custom app.
Create scripts that read, write, and manage external data files to write log files or export data in a custom format. Replaces the need for many file-based plug-ins.
Now you can more easily debug your workflow automation. Use a preview script step to write information about script errors to a log file.
This calculation function repeats logic while the condition is true, then returns the result, replacing the need for some recursive custom functions.
Set the maximum number of iterations for recursion and loops within an expression. The default limit is 50,000 iterations to more easily stop a recursion or loop from running indefinitely. The limit can be lowered or raised using this function.
This new privilege allows developers to offload account access management to other team members without needing to provide full access to any other parts of the file.
The streamlined Manage Security dialog box allows you to be more efficient in managing access to your custom apps.
Ensure your plug-ins come from a trustworthy source before they are automatically loaded by your FileMaker app. Within the Plug-in SDK, developers are able to digitally sign plug-ins. Notifications warn users before loading an unsigned plug-in.
Prevent other FileMaker files from accessing the data and schema in your custom app. The "Require full access privileges to use references to this file" is now enabled by default in newly created files.
