FileMaker naming conventions | DataManix & SquareMoon - The Brain Basket

FileMaker naming conventions | DataManix & SquareMoon - The Brain Basket | Learning Claris FileMaker | Scoop.it

We (DataManix) have created a naming conventions document in collaboration with our great colleagues at SquareMoon Industries.


The way these conventions sets themselves apart from many others, is that they are meant to be limited to a few rules and mostly guidelines.

This should make it more easy to follow and not lock the developer into a very specific way of developing.


We publish these conventions to the community in the hope that others would like to adopt them.

 

The more, who adopt, the easier it will be for new developers to get into FileMaker development and the easier it will be for us to collaborate on projects.

Didier Daglinckx's insight:

FMS BackupHelper | The Brain Basket - FileMaker

FMS BackupHelper | The Brain Basket - FileMaker | Learning Claris FileMaker | Scoop.it

In this video, we are talking about FileMaker Server backups – or more precisely, a backup set, that you create for remote backup.
Ultimately we want our FileMaker Server to take incremental backup, so we save on processing power and the time it takes to do a backup.


But we also want our remote backup software to do incremental backup, instead of moving a full copy every night.
Now in order for FileMaker server to do incremental backup, it needs to stamp the backup set folder with a timestamp. However, the Remote Backup software will as a result, see the entire folder and it’s files as changed and therefore it will do a full backup.

FMS 15 and SSL Certificates | The Brain Basket - video - FileMaker

FMS 15 and SSL Certificates | The Brain Basket - video - FileMaker | Learning Claris FileMaker | Scoop.it

FileMaker 15 product family was released today !

There are several great things to say about the new release.

One thing that is very interesting, is the changes made to FileMaker Server 15 and SSL certificates. We now have a better and easier way to install certificates, using the FileMaker Server Admin Console. Not only that, but now there is support for more certificate. Most interesting is the support for wildcard and SAN certificates and intermediate certificates.

Want to know more about what this is all about ?

Fun with FileMaker – Control with the gestures of your hand | The Brain Basket (video 3'09")

Fun with FileMaker – Control with the gestures of your hand | The Brain Basket (video 3'09") | Learning Claris FileMaker | Scoop.it
Watch this video to get inspired.


I will show you a device, that can capture the gestures of your hand and thereby control a FileMaker solution.


While this is just a prototype and proof of concept, there could actually be a lot of applications, where such thing could come in handy.


Imagine a chef in a restaurant, that prepares dishes and the orders is displayed on a screen.

Instead of having to press a touch screen or a keypad with his hands, that have just been working on the food, he can wave his hand in front of the sensor to go to next order, previous, mark it as being worked on.


Never have to contaminate keypads, tablets etc.

Free SVG Gallery tool | DataManix - Filemaker development

Now you get an even smarter way of managing your SVG icons, and a very smart and easy way to get a collection of icons, directly into the icons palette within your FileMaker solution.

The SVG Gallery tool works by importing your icons, taking the content of SVG files directly into a text field. From there, you can process all found icons to add the needed class in order to allow FileMaker 14 to control the color of the icon.
Now, in order to get a collection of icons into the icon palette in your solution, there is now a very smart way to do so, using the SVG Gallery tool.
