From 6th to 8th June 2013, you can come to Berlin for the
PauseOnError conference. A meeting of Filemaker developers from all over Europe and in English.
We'll be there and make two presentations. First one about the MBS Filemaker plugin and a second one is about Mac goodies like Syntax Coloring, smaller Runtimes and Gatekeeper.
If you prefer a German conference, maybe you better go to the
Filemaker Konferenz in Salzburg in October from 17th to 19th.

Do you see something unusual on this menubar screenshot or on the dock screenshot right?
Well, with next MBS Filemaker Plugin version you can change the name of the app in the menubar and also change the dock icon. Some nice new ways to customize your solutions with Filemaker. And for the dock tile you can still use the badge function to show a little number or text. For example like Mail to show the number of unread emails.
For the dock icon you best use a square image with at least 128x128 pixel size. Better you use 512x512 (for retina) and the plugin will fit the image to the right size requested by the operation system. For transparency, please use a PNG file.
