Troi Dialog Plug-in 4.0 for FileMaker Pro 7

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Troi Automatisering releases Troi Dialog Plug-in 4.0 for FileMaker Pro 7

New FileMaker Pro 7 plug-in brings custom Unicode dialogs.

Alphen aan den Rijn, The Netherlands, May 24th, 2005--Troi
Automatisering today announced the immediate availability of Troi
Dialog Plug-in 4.0 for FileMaker Pro 7. Troi Dialog Plug-in 4.0 makes
use of the extended plug-in API of FileMaker 7. Calls to the
plug-in's functions can now support Unicode and more and bigger
parameters.

At the same time Troi is releasing Troi Dialog Plug-in 3.6. This
version makes use of the 'classic' plug-in API. Users that upgrade to
FileMaker 7 but also want to use the Dialog Plug-in on earlier
versions of FileMaker Pro can use this version. The 3.6 version runs
on FileMaker 6 and 5.x.

What is Troi Dialog Plug-in?

Troi Dialog Plug-in is a very powerful tool for displaying all sorts
of dialogs in FileMaker Pro 7. The text of the dialog and of the
buttons can be created dynamically by using a calculation. All from
within FileMaker you can:

- show dialogs with variable text and up to 4 buttons
- show an input dialog to let a user input data in up to 9 fields
- choose these input fields to be any of the following: simple text,
password field, popup list or check box
- show a list dialog or big text dialog
- show temporary flash screens
- show a progress bar for lengthy operations
- position the dialog box anywhere on the screen
- add a standard icon or your own icons

Peter Baanen, company president, states: "I'm very excited that this
plug-in is finally native for FileMaker Pro 7. With the plug-in
supporting Unicode international deployment, for example to Japan, is
even easier!"

What is new in version 4.0?

Troi Dialog Plug-in 4.0 is completely rewritten for FileMaker 7. This
release adds these new features:

- Converted to the new External Function API of FileMaker Pro 7.
- The plug-in functions now have a size limit of 1 Gb per parameter
(up from the total of 64000 character limit for all parameters in
FileMaker 6!)
- The function parameters now support Unicode characters (Some
dialogs only support ASCII at the moment.)

Suggested Uses

- give your users better and flexible feedback
- show quick instructions without the user having to dismiss the dialog
- build multi-language systems more easily
- make your solutions look more professional by using your own icons
and title bars in dialogs
- create a small list dialog when you have only a little list and a
big one if you have a big list
- control the way users type in data: you can, for example, let them
type more than 10 and less than 40 characters
