Nickenich, Germany - (January 14th, 2025) -- Monkeybread Software today is pleased to announce [MBS FileMaker Plugin](https://www.monkeybreadsoftware.com/filemaker/) 15.0 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/) 15.0 has been updated and now includes over 7500 different functions, and the versatile plugin has gained more new functions: For macOS Sequoia we like to use more of Apple Intelligence. As part of that you can show the image playground window. The user can generate a picture based on a prompt and an input image using our [ImagePlayground](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_ImagePlayground.shtml) functions. We work on integrating the Saxon XML processing libraries into FileMaker. Once completed this will allow you to use XSLT 3.0 for transformations, XQuery 3.1 for queries, XSD 1.1 for document validation and XPath 3.1 for navigation within documents. This version includes a preview of the functions for you to try. For DynaPDF we got the [DynaPDF.CheckEmbeddedFileCheckSum](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DynaPDFCheckEmbeddedFileCheckSum.shtml) function to validate whether a checksum for an embedded file inside a PDF is valid. The [DynaPDF.ConvToFreeTextCallout](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DynaPDFConvToFreeTextCallout.shtml) allows you to convert a regular FreeText annotation to a FreeTextCallout annotation. And with [DynaPDF.DeleteOutputIntent](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DynaPDFDeleteOutputIntent.shtml) you can delete an output intent, e.g. if you like to define a different colorspace as output intent. For the menubar we sort the hidden window list alphabetically. We improved the auto complete feature for custom functions and added a checkbox for it to the preferences dialog. We improved our field picker enhancements in FileMaker to work in more places. We show you details for a field in the tooltip and show the arrow control on the top right to jump to the last used table occurence. The [SyntaxColoring.AddContextMenuCommand](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/SyntaxColoringAddContextMenuCommand.shtml) function can add context menu commands for layout and browse mode instead of just Script Workspace. In [XL](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_XL.shtml) functions we added ways to get and set properties for a document like title or subject. You can also remove the properties and query the default format for a row or column. The [XL.Sheet.CellWriteTexts](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/XLSheetCellWriteTexts.shtml) function can optionally use blank cells for empty texts. For macOS we can set key equivalents for our dialog boxes for each button using [Dialog.SetKeyEquivalent](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DialogSetKeyEquivalent.shtml). The [AVAsset.TrackInfo](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/AVAssetTrackInfo.shtml) function can query format information and [Process.LoadFramework](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/ProcessLoadFramework.shtml) function can explicitly load a macOS framework. The [DragDrop.GetPathList](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/DragDropGetPathList.shtml) function returns the list of all paths received. We added [JSON.SetVariables](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/JSONSetVariables.shtml) and [JSON.ClearVariables](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/JSONClearVariables.shtml) to match similar [XML](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_XML.shtml)functions, we allow you to merge output and error streams for [shell](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_Shell.shtml) functions, we added an [Archive.IsOpen](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/ArchiveIsOpen.shtml) function and you can set whether audit ignores empty field for creating a record. Finally we updated the curl library to version 8.11.1, DynaPDF to 4.0.96.273, expat library to 2.6.4, LibXL to 4.5.0, mongo-c-driver to 1.29.1, SQLAPI to 5.3.5, SQLite to 3.47.2, ssh2 to 1.11.1, taglib to 2.0.2, zlib to 1.3.1 and zxing to version 2.3. See [release notes](https://monkeybreadsoftware.com/filemaker/releasenotes150.shtml) for a complete list of changes. ---
