FM Locator - A helpful small tool for developing FileMaker solutions

[doantrongnhan]

Hello All,

 

This is just a small FileMaker-based tool whose input is the XML data of Database Design Report exported from Filemaker.

 

It can help developers save time finding elements in a solution.

 

Below is what the tool provides

 

• Search any fields in a whole solution

• Search any layouts in a whole solution

• Search any scripts in a whole solution

• Search any TO (Table Occurrence) in a whole solution

• Import many solutions

 

You can download the tool from the following link

http://www.locatorfm.com

 

The zip file is around 4MB so it can not be uploaded here

 

Enjoy using it.

 

Thanks,

Nhan

Hello All,

 

FM Locator 1.8.7 has the following updates

 

• Search Custom Functions: allow developers to check the detail of a custom function and all the places it is called in a file.

• Search Any Text: allow developers to find constant strings, along with global or local variables used in calculation fields, scripts, layout objects, or menu items

• Special feature: Hide or show a block of script steps inside IF / LOOP. This feature only exists in Detail tab of Search on script.

• One serious error with checking latest updates when the web server is so slow has been fixed.

• Result portals will show more lines when the layout is extended vertically.

• Notice: The file name of the tool SHOULD NOT be changed because if it contains some special characters, a couple of features of the tool will NOT work.

 

You can download the tool from the following link
