Mark Richman, Skeleton Key, hosted FM Academy’s fifth webinar in the 12 Days of FileMaker 12 series, on April 24th. The topic – Quick Table View Enhancements:

Table View might just be one of the least appreciated features in the FileMaker Pro product line. True, it hardly changed in versions 7 through 9, and the changes in 10 were welcome, but fairly simple. All that changed in 11 with the addition of two bold new features which allow a developer to quickly create a table and perform summary analyses, all without ever leaving the comfort of browse mode. FileMaker 12 brings welcome refinements to this important family of features, and makes Table View a tool worthy of a fresh look.

Mark demonstrated the practical uses of Table View and showcased changes to it in FileMaker 12.

The webinar agenda included:

  • Evolution of a Feature : slow and steady wins the race
  • What’s New in FileMaker 12 : better contextual menu organization, quick charts
  • Miscellaneous Items Worth Mentioning : subtle differences, some limitations, playing nicely with others
