It also improved on several functions, adding exciting new possibilities: Drag and drop files and folders You can now drag one or more files or folders on a FileMaker window or even a drop zone. The paths of the dropped items can then be handled by a triggered script, for example to put them in a container field. Reveal files and folders Troi File Plug-in can reveal files and folders in the Finder or Windows Explorer, showing users directly where items are on their disk. More metadata support: GPS, XML and timecode data Troi File Plug-in adds support for reading GPS and XMP metadata in images and also timecode data in movies: Get GPS (Global Positioning System) metadata embedded in images. With this you can find the coordinates (latitude and longitude) of the image. Read XMP metadata, as added for example by Adobe Photoshop. Get more extensive movie attributes. Some of the new items are: frames per second, codec name, codec type. And even timecode information, like begin and end timecode, is returned.
