FileMaker Script Bridge 2026.09.23

Highlights

  • Adds local Smart Fix review for flagged script lines and missing dialog defaults. Review suggested repairs, edit replacements, keep unresolved items, or explicitly omit a step with a comment preserving the original text.
  • Validates replacements as native steps before applying them and requires a separate Update FileMaker Clipboard action after review.
  • Recovers the bridge’s exported two-comment TODO drafts for review and repair.
  • Improves Show Custom Dialog parsing and validation, including positional title/message forms, ordered button definitions, and rejection of unsupported or duplicate options. Missing default-button suggestions use Default Button: "OK", Commit: No and require review.
  • Expands coverage since the first release from 92 to 97 editable subsets across the 216-step reference. Adds native data-file operations and Insert from URL, improves wrapped record/find options, and fixes Go to Record exit-option XML.
  • Provides completion-template comments for the remaining 119 official steps, with optional strict native-only export.
  • Improves universal app packaging with optional SDK and build-system overrides.

Validation

The universal release build completed for Apple Silicon and Intel, and its ad-hoc signature and bundle version were verified. Automated tests could not run on the release machine: Command Line Tools lacks XCTest, and the installed Xcode requires license acceptance.

Download and requirements

Download FileMaker Script Bridge.app.zip, extract it, and move the app to Applications.

  • macOS 13 or later; universal Apple Silicon and Intel build.
  • FileMaker Pro 26 for the documented script-step catalogue.
  • Fully local operation; no accounts, analytics, or network requests.
  • Ad-hoc signed and not Apple-notarized. macOS may require Control-clicking the app and choosing Open on first launch.
  • Preservation markers retain their original XML only during the same app session. Complete unresolved TODO steps in FileMaker before using the script.
