Is it possible to have multiple windows of the same calendar under Filemaker 18 and Dayback 10.55. I have more than one client asking me this.

Hi Jim,

Because of the way that DayBack for FileMaker exports the event and filter to the temporary directory in order for the web viewer to display events, there isn't a good way to have the calendar showing in separate windows with different filters. The scripts really aren't written with that in mind either, so there would be some changes required for them to know which window to focus on: https://www.seedcode.com/pmwiki/index.p ... .NewWindow

However, with the new version of DayBack coming with FileMaker 19, you will be able to have multiple windows open with the calendar working great! You'll be able to download a preview of the new DayBack as soon as Claris offers a public preview of FileMaker 19. More details can be found here: https://dayback.com/filemaker-calendar/

Sincerely,

KC

Will the new version apply as an upgrade to our existing installs, or is it a completely separate file? Is there any backwards compatibility for continuing to run under FM and FMS 18?

Hi Jim,

I don't quite have details to share on that yet, but we will soon. You'll see more details coming out at the page here and in our newsletter.

Regards,

KC
