Troi Dialog Plug-in updated for FileMaker Pro 11.

Alphen aan den Rijn, The Netherlands, October 11th, 2011--Troi Automatisering 
today announced the immediate availability of Troi Dialog Plug-in 5.5.4 for 
FileMaker Pro 11.


What is Troi Dialog Plug-in?

Troi Dialog Plug-in is a very powerful tool for displaying all sorts of dialogs 
in FileMaker Pro 11. The text of the dialog and of the buttons can be created 
dynamically by using a calculation. All from within FileMaker you can:

- show an input dialog to let a user input data in up to 15 fields and up to 4 
buttons
- choose these input fields to be any of the following: simple text, password 
field, popup list or check box
- show a list dialog or very big text dialog
- show temporary flash screens
- show a progress bar for lengthy operations
- add a standard icon or your own custom icons, now also with transparent PNGs
- present a slideshow of images and movies fullscreen


What is new in version 5.5.4?

Troi Dialog Plug-in 5.5.4 is a maintenance release, but also adds a few 
enhancements:

- Improved the Dial_ProgressBar function: you can now press the ESC key to stop 
the dialog, by adding the switch: "-StopOnESC".
- (Mac OS X) Improved the the Dial_Dialog function, so that the title is now 
visible. Note that this change only occurs in FileMaker Pro 11.
- Added a switch "-TitlesInProgressBarDialogs" to the Dial_SetPreference 
function. When you set this to "off" the ProgressBar title is set to blank for 
all subsequent calls of the ProgressBar dialog.
- (Mac OS X) Fixed a bug in the Dial_Dialog function when running FileMaker Pro 
11, where after typing several characters they would end up in the FileMaker 
file under the dialog.
- Fixed a bug in the Dial_ProgressBar function, with the handling of blocking 
alert dialogs that can appear below the ProgressBar Dialog.
- Fixed a bug with the Dial_InputDialog function and FileMaker Pro 9 where copy 
and paste did not work.
- Updated User Guide and Overview.fp7 to reflect the added functionality.


Suggested uses

- give your users better and flexible feedback
- show quick instructions without the user having to dismiss the dialog
- build multi-language systems more easily
- make your solutions look more professional by using your own icons and title 
bars in dialogs
- control the way users type in data: you can, for example, let them type more 
than 10 and less than 40 characters
- show a slideshow of images selected from a found set, for example all images 
with water as a keyword
- measure time like for a race or the efficiency of 2 differently implemented 
scripts.

All these features also work in a runtime solution. We invite you to test drive 
the new functions and see what you can do with it!
