Troi Automatisering releases Troi Graphic Plug-in 1.1 for FileMaker 5.5

Update available of Troi Graphic Plug-in for FileMaker 5.5 and Mac OS X.

FileMaker Developer Conference, Orlando-August 13th, 2001-- Troi Automatisering today announced the availability of Troi Graphic Plug-in 1.1, for FileMaker 5.5 and for Mac OS, Mac OS X and Windows.

What is the Graphic Plug-in?

The Graphic Plug-in adds powerful graphics functions to FileMaker Pro 5.5:

  • RGB Colors: With this function you can fill container fields in any RGB (red, green, blue combination) color you want.
  • Screen Capture: Capture the state of the screen into a container field: You can capture the complete screen or specify which part of the screen you want. This is great for customer support.
  • Make Thumbnails: If you have large images already in a FileMaker database there is no easy way to make small preview images. But with the Graphic plug-in you now can create small thumbnails, all within FileMaker! Ideal for speedy images in Web Publishing

Peter Baanen, company president, states: "We have been updating our plug-ins for FileMaker 5.5 and are committed to get them all ready. So we're proud to present yet another plug-in for the Mac OS X platform at the the start of the FileMaker Developers Conference. This plug-in is great news for all web publishers that use FileMaker for publishing images on the web".

New Features

The Troi Graphic Plug-in 1.1 has been tested with FileMaker 5.5 and made compatible with Mac OS X. The Mac OS version of the plug-in is now a so called 'Super Fat' plug-in that will run native on Mac OS 8, 9 and on Mac OS X.

Suggested Uses

Troi Serial Plug-in 2.2 is very well suited for the use in electronic devices that send data to the computer continuously, like most electronic weighing scales. An example file for a weighing scale is included in the download. Other suggested uses for this plug-in are connecting to a modem, custom switchboard dialing, caller ID, credit card swiping, controlling external devices (like Billy Bass, the singing fish =) ), data acquisition and data transfer.
