Designing layouts in FileMaker is one of my favorite aspects of the platform. The ability to simply drag and position elements exactly where you want them feels akin to being a painter, free to use any tools and materials you choose. FileMaker strikes a remarkable balance between the creative and technical sides of development.
Like all things, achieving the desired results requires knowing a few tricks. Whether it’s about stacking objects efficiently or minimizing their number, it’s up to the designer or developer to bring the vision to life.
In this video, I showcase a few adjustments I made to an example file I downloaded. This file, likely created to explore the newer OData technology, provided an excellent opportunity for me to demonstrate how I approach the UI design of a FileMaker layout. I also share how you can make a few small tweaks that might improve the overall maintainability of your solutions.
