Nickenich, Germany - (November 7th, 2023) -- Monkeybread Software today is pleased to announce [MBS FileMaker Plugin](https://www.monkeybreadsoftware.com/filemaker/) 13.5 for Claris FileMaker 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](https://www.monkeybreadsoftware.com/filemaker/) 13.5 has been updated and now includes over 7200 different functions, and the versatile plugin has gained more new functions: To help with JSON processing, we have [JSON](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_JSON.shtml) functions to search, replace and query. Use [JSON.Query](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/JSONQuery.shtml) function for JSON Path queries and [JSON.Replace](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/JSONReplace.shtml) to replace found values with new values. Use [JSON.Search](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/JSONSearch.shtml) to perform JMESPath queries in FileMaker. Our [ListDialog](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_ListDialog.shtml) functions can show check boxes in the dialog. Turn them on with [ListDialog.SetShowCheckboxes](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/ListDialogSetShowCheckboxes.shtml) function, mark a few rows a pre-checked before showing the dialog. When the dialog finished, you can query checked entries. Combine this feature with our filter field to find various items and check them all. The DynaPDF library can create PDF/A documents in versions 4, 4e and 4f and we improved our [DynaPDF.CheckConformance](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DynaPDFCheckConformance.shtml) and [DynaPDF.SetPDFVersion](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DynaPDFSetPDFVersion.shtml) functions for this. For [DynaPDF.SetGStateFlags](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DynaPDFSetGStateFlags.shtml) we added the SkaleAnnotIcons flag and we added [DynaPDF.CreateGeospatialMeasure](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DynaPDFCreateGeospatialMeasure.shtml) function. We added [Phidget](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_Phidget.shtml) functions in the last version. We rewrote the script trigger handling to work better for events happening quickly. To clear an event trigger, please use [Phidget.ClearScriptTrigger](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/PhidgetClearScriptTrigger.shtml) function. For macOS we added a format button to calculation dialog. This takes the current formula, parses it and produces a new formatted version. Please try and report edge cases. You can use Command-Shift-F to go to the replace field for the find panel in a calculation. Press Command-Option-Shift-C to copy the current formula as html. If you enjoy our URL recognition for Script Workspace on macOS, you can use goto: and field: URLs there. Clicking on the URL button for a goto: URL jumps to a line in the script while clicking on a script: URL jumps to a different script. When checking variable names in the Script Workspace on macOS, you can declare new variables with a comment before a Let statement to tell our plugin about the new variables. For Windows we have the [Window.AddToTaskbar](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/WindowAddToTaskbar.shtml) and [Window.RemoveFromTaskbar](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/WindowRemoveFromTaskbar.shtml) functions to hide windows from the taskbar if needed. We improved the use of our [WindowsOCR](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_WindowsOCR.shtml) functions for server. Since MacOS Sonoma introduces reactions for video recording, you can configure this via [AVRecorder](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_AVRecorder.shtml) functions. When running on macOS 14 or iOS 17, your application can check for effect availability and beside gesture also run effects via script via [AVRecorder.PerformEffectForReaction](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/AVRecorderPerformEffectForReaction.shtml) function. We added a MongoDB Audit sample database to the examples. For linux we use the more secure libc functions. Use [Matrix.Lookup](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/MatrixLookup.shtml) to look for a value in a matrix with a fallback to a default value, use the [Text.TextToHTML](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/TextTextToHTML.shtml) function to convert styled text to html including highlighted ranges and use [XML.Import](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/XMLImport.shtml) with new flags to skip UUID fields or ignore duplicate primary key errors. Finally we updated CURL library to version 8.4.0, DynaPDF to 4.0.80.232, SQLAPI to 5.2.6 and SQLite to 3.44.0 and Xcode to version 15.0.
