FileMaker 11, the latest version of the FileMaker family of products, was shipped in mid-March. The headline feature is the built-in charting tools that allow users to quickly and easily represent their data in stylish, elegant charts. FileMaker Charts supports bar, horizontal bar, line, area, or pie charts and the data upon which the charts are based can come from fields in the current found set, from a field in the current record, or from data in related records. Native charting in FileMaker will open the doors to a new fast and efficient way of converting raw data into useful information without the need for third party products.
Other exciting new features in FileMaker 11 include:
- Enhanced Table View for quick spreadsheet like reporting.
- Snapshot Links to preserve a found set of records including layout and sort order, or to email a link to a specific set of records in the database.
- Recurring Import to automate imports for an Excel spreadsheet or text file every time you open your database or visit a particular layout.
- Quick Find allows a browser-like search for data across all fields on your layout without leaving browse mode.
- Inspector takes layout mode to a whole new level combining all of your favorite design tools in one efficient palette.
