4-2 FileMaker Pro Installation and New Features Guide
Support for custom menu items
Using FileMaker Pro Developer Edition, database developers can
customize the name of the Script menu, connect a script to a custom
menu item in the Help menu, and connect a script to “About <solution
name>” (under the Help menu in Windows and under the Apple menu
in the Mac OS).
If a menu name is altered in the runtime solution, the custom menu name
will replace the menu name in the FileMaker Pro 4.1 file you’re
viewing. If a custom Help menu and script has been specified, it will be
available, along with the FileMaker Pro 4.1 onscreen help, under the
Help menu.
Remove master access
The FileMaker Pro Developer Edition software enables developers to
permanently remove access to Define Fields, Define Relationships,
Access Privileges, and the ScriptMaker
®
feature. This prevents anyone
from modifying the database structure in the runtime solution files.
If you open these databases in any version of FileMaker Pro, these
features will be unavailable to you. The files behave as if access
privileges are disabled for these features.
Euro character support
FileMaker Pro 4.1 now provides cross-platform support for the new
European currency symbol ( ). To use the Euro symbol with
FileMaker Pro, you must also be using an operating system and font that
support the new symbol.
To determine the keystroke for entering the Euro symbol, you can use a
keyboard mapping utility such as Character Map (Windows) or
Key Caps (Mac OS) to locate the character.
Warning FileMaker Pro files containing the Euro symbol may not
display the symbol correctly when opened with FileMaker Pro 4.0 and
earlier versions.
Both Windows 98 and Mac OS 8.5 include fonts that support this
character. For more information on the Euro character, visit the
Microsoft or Apple Web sites.
