Click through the Script Flow
Just Open that Script!
FileMaker got a great new feature quite a few versions back, where you can ⌘Click on a Perform Script
script step and it opens the script for you.
This is a great feature to help you to follow the script-flow but…
The Problem
…it only works within one file.
If you have a multifile solution, where scripts jump between files, I’m afraid you are out of luck!
MrWatson’s Solution
Just add a little of MrWatson’s tonic, wave your magic wand - ⌃⌘O - and Open Sesame
! the script will magically open for you.
The tonic you need is
- fmAutoMate
- fmIDE!
- and, of course, the MBS Plugin
fmAutoMate extends the FileMaker development environment to provide extra menu items and keyboard shortcuts to make your life easier.
fmIDE (a FileMaker Integrated Devlopment Environment) is a script/script module that you can add to your solution to provide unbelievable power to your development environment.
