Nickenich, Germany - (March 15th, 2022) -- MonkeyBread Software today is 
pleased to announce MBS FileMaker Plugin 12.1 for macOS, iOS, Linux and 
Windows, the latest update to their product that is easily the most powerful 
plugin currently available for Claris FileMaker produce line. As the leading 
database management solution for Windows, macOS, iOS and the web, the Claris 
FileMaker Pro Integrated Development Environment supports a plugin architecture 
that can easily extend the feature set of the application. MBS FileMaker Plugin 
12.1 has been updated and now includes over 6700 different functions, and the 
versatile plugin has gained more new functions:


We extend the auto complete feature on macOS for variable names and added auto 
complete for MBS function names. Type a letter to see component list. When you 
have a pick in the menu, type a dot to complete and then type the next letter 
for the function. Column width saving for the Layout Picker dialog is now 
implemented. The SyntaxColoring.ColorizeScript function can colorize a script 
text for you.

For Windows we got WinPhotoAcquire functions to import photos from digital 
cameras (DLSR) on your Windows PC. We show the standard Windows dialogs for 
picking the device or what pictures to import.

The DynaPDF functions got new support for PDF/A 2u and 3u in 
DynaPDF.CheckConformance function. The DynaPDF.SetSpaceWidthFactor function 
allows you to control how the DyanPDF.ExtractText function adds spaces. If you 
like to produce invoices with ZUGFeRD standard, we got a new example database 
to show you have to create the XML and embed it into a PDF.

Doing math in FileMaker? We got a few new functions to work on lists as well as 
multiple parameters: Math.Average, Math.Max, Math.Median, Math.Min, 
Math.Multiply, Math.Reciprocal, Math.StandardDeviation, and Math.Sum. 

If you use the FileMaker iOS SDK on a M1 Mac, you can now run the MBS Plugin 
with Apple Silicon in the iOS simulator.

We tuned our WebHook functions to limit the maximum size of a request. Use 
WebRequest.GetBodySize and WebRequest.GetSize to query the size of the request 
later.

Our plugin knows the parameter names for functions and you can query them with 
Plugin.GetFunctionParameters function. We show a tooltip on macOS for the 
function parameters if you hover over the MBS function name with your mouse 
cursor. The trace logs show the parameter names for MBS calls, which should 
help debugging your scripts. 

For macOS you can now change the alignment of text in a dialog with 
Dialog.SetTextAlignment function. You can use FM.QueryCustomFunctionsList and 
FM.CustomFunctionsList functions to query the list of custom functions in a 
file. And with CNContactStore.FetchContact you can fetch a contact again to 
refresh it if needed. 

We got a Audit.Statistics function to help you check what Audit functions did, 
a Files.AudioCoverArt function to query cover art pictures for MP3, MP4 or FLAC 
music files, a Text.Reverse function with proper Emoji handling and a handy 
Dictionary.Lookup function to return a value or the default value. The 
XML.Colorize and JSON.Colorize functions now support dark mode.

Finally we updated CURL library to version 7.82.0, DynaPDF to 4.0.66.172, LCMS 
to 2.13.1, SQLAPI to 5.1.9, SQLite to 3.38.1, Xcode to 13.2.1.
