CNS Menu 1.0 For FileMaker

CNS Menu 1.0 For FileMaker

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

COMM-UNITY NETWORKING SYSTEMS RELEASES CNS MENU 1.0 FOR MAC OS X AND WINDOWS.

Fort Worth, TX, August 24, 2004 -- Comm-Unity Networking Systems announces
the release of CNS Menu 1.0 for both Macintosh and Windows - A FileMaker Pro
7 plug-in. This is the initial release of the plug-in, formerly known as
SCRIPTit.

CNS Menu allows you to place hierarchal menus anywhere on a FileMaker layout.
When a menu item is chosen, the script of your choice in the database of your
choice is performed. Menus can have any number of sub menus and can be
displayed with a variety of styles and bullet marks. Creating menus with CNS
Menu can be as easy as handing the plug-in a return delimited string of menu
items to display. Your menu items can have a display name, and a value that
can be used in your scripts, so the end user can see useful information such
as a customer name while the value can be a Customer ID number.

CNS Menu ships with the "CNS Menu.fp7" example database which includes 15
examples demonstrating ways to use and understand the CNS Menu plug-in. The
database is fully unlocked so you can explore every detail. We have also
included the documentation for each example inline, so you can both examine
the example and see its explanation all from one layout. Examples include,
QuickMenu, Menu Placement, MenuBuilder, Value List to QuickMenu, Hidden
Items, Menu Decoration, Mouse Grabber, Right Click, Data Entry, Layout
Navigation, Update Menu Item, Bookmark Example, External XML Menu, and RSS
Menu.

CNS Menu has many advantages over its predecessor, SCRIPTit. This rendition
includes MenuBuilder in the configuration dialog which allows you to quickly
build new menus without having to know XML. You can then simply use menus
built in MenuBuilder in your database, or copy the XML which is generated for
you. CNS Menu also includes a brand new way to create menus called
"QuickMenus". A QuickMenu takes a return separated list of items and creates
a menu for you without having to know or use any XML.

"I am very excited about CNS Menu. SCRIPTit was a wonderful plug-in, but CNS
Menu has opened the doors to many new users by adding such features as
QuickMenus and MenuBuilder, which allow users to create menus without having
to know any XML. Of course, our power users will be glad to know that you
can still use XML to create menus." - Jesse Traynham, Director of Production
and Database Developer of Comm-Unity Networking Systems.
