I took a look at the linking discussion. This is what I did in my database:
In my layout tool (my recources) I made containers (like <TABGRAPH_ACTIVE>, <TABGRAPH_INACTIVE>, <SUBTAB_ACTIVE> and so on) for every button I have in the GUI.
In the GUI I made calculated containers like <TAB1> =...
It will certanly have multiligual support. The fun thing is that the lay-out tool is a database itself. This way I can call record 1 "englisch" record 2 Dutch, record 3 "german" and so on.
The only thing to adjust in the whole structure is a setting in each database to look...
ª?·\?d....
The structure of Smart tabs doesn't fit my layout tool architecture. For all you guys who are curious what I've been doing lately here's the URL for some screenshots.

My ultimate goal is a empty database structure with:
10 modules
10 submodules for...
Thanks Lebisol,
I just got the chance to take a more serious look at Mikhail Edoshin's Smart Tabs. (thanx for the link) this is pretty much I had in mind, but this solution is far more sophisticated than I ever could dream of. IT LOOKS GREAT! This may be a good starting point...
Thanks again...
Hey Guys!
I've been away for a couple of weeks and I'm glad to see the discussion is still going strong. Thanks to all who tried to point me into the right direction. I'm THIS far to the solution. I think I only have to take my IBook and get myself locked in a moist dungeon with some FMP...
OK, lets get back to what I try to do:
Up front: I know the FM basics. :-)
Here we go: I've defined 30 fields, known in my database as Tab1... Tab5 (the main chapters in my pre-designed lay-out) and the fields Tab1.1 ... Tab1.5, Tab 2.1 ... Tab2.5, Tab 3.1 ... Tab 3.5, Tab 4.1 ... Tab 4.5, Tab...
Hi Lebisol!
Thanks for your reply. I guess the trick I need will be just for FM purposes. I'm designing a standard lay-out for all my apps, so I don't have to worry about the lay-out anymore, and point all my attention to the programming part.
I need to do that because, like I said.... I'm not...
Is it possible -like in Excel- to define conditional lay-out in FP5.5Dev?
What I try to do is this:
1. In my lay-out "preferences" I've made fields with the following names: Tab1, Tab2, Tab 3 etc.
2. In my user lay-outs I merge the fields as discribed and set the merged fields as...
Hi Filemakerians,
