Menu Popper is a plugin for FileMaker® Pro that shows both dropdown and multi-level pop-up menus anywhere on your FileMaker database layouts.
Menus show wherever the user clicked, or they can be aligned with a particular button or other item on your layout.
Save space.
Sub-menu support.
Return alternate values.
Menus with style.
Take control of type-ahead.
Menu Popper can add a similar dropdown menu below FileMaker fields. As the user types, use your own SQL to fill that menu with suggestions that come from different database fields.
You control the order of results. The number. The grouping. You can add menu items that do things like create a new user or populate other fields based on the record id of the chosen match.
Use a wide menu to show First name, Last name, Email, Phone, and Workplace from a number of possible matches, speeding data entry as it becomes clear if the person being entered is going to match someone who already exists.
Flexible menu creation.
Create menus from values separated by comma, tab, semi-colon, newline, or any other character. Even FileMaker Value Lists can be used.
A menu item name of “-“ is converted into a divider between menu items.
Reduce table occurrence clutter.
Mutable menus.
Menu items can be set to show only when modifier keys, such as Shift, are held down before the menu is shown.
Take control.
