The fmp and fmp19 URLs now support the option parameter when you use a URL to run a script. This parameter controls how a currently running script is handled. The parameter's values are the same as those defined for the FileMaker.PerformScriptWithOption() JavaScript function (see the FileMaker Pro 19.1.2 Updater Release Notes in the Knowledge Base).
For example, the following URL sets the option parameter to 3:
If a script is currently paused, this URL resumes the paused script and, after the resumed script is completed, runs the ListClients script.
See "Opening files using a URL" in FileMaker Pro Help.
Addressed issues
The following issues were addressed.
Important: To ensure that you don't encounter the issues below, you must update all clients to FileMaker Pro 19.1.3.
FileMaker Pro 19.1.2 couldn't connect to a FileMaker Cloud for AWS host.
FileMaker Pro 19.1.2 would close unexpectedly after creating a Database Design Report from a file that contained a summary layout part and had been modified in Table View.
Choosing Require password change on next sign-in could cause the Change Password dialog box not to close when you clicked a button.
Interestingly, the Mac version appears to be a full app (716Mb) that is dragged into the Applications folder.
The Windows installer has just put up the message below, looks like currently it is also not an updater, I wonder whether they’ve uploaded the wrong versions? We can’t afford to uninstall from our RemoteApp servers, so hanging off that for now and waiting for the in app update, which is not currently available, or an actual updater file.
Upon loading the Mac version, my previously up to date Dacons MailIt plug in has resulted in ‘Plug-in Mailit will not be loaded - incompatible FileMaker Version’. This is being repeated throughout loading one of our current systems. There is an increment update on the Dacons website, so now trying that.
So far, I’d suggest waiting a little while before installing. However, I have managed to finally create a DDR, so looks like the problems introduced by v19.1.2 may have been sorted (this was a major productivity hit for us).
The Windows updates has worked from the alternative download page, but it has also broken MailIt, to a point the app won’t load. The message can be seen if Windows tab is used, but cannot be clicked on to continue.
The Mac and Windows buttons under the Download column has now been updated to download the updater; not the full installer. The View button under the Release Notes column continues to display the updaters.
