Again, you can either use a hard coded path, or you can use a Save As type dialog to allow the user to specify a location. CNS Image also allows you to export images from container objects to any location on your hard drive. You can even specify the types of image files the user can select in the Open File dialog instead of all available files. You can either specify the complete path to the image file in your calculation or you can use a standard Open File dialog to allow the user to select an image file. Importing and ExportingĬNS Image allows you to import images into FileMaker Pro container objects from any location on your hard drive. This means you can use Scheduled Scripts to batch process images at night, or create Instant/Custom Web Publishing solutions that can convert, stretch, crop, and more. Everything that works under FileMaker Pro will also work under FileMaker Server, with the obvious exception of bringing up a dialog for selecting a file to Import or Export. Have you ever wanted to adjust the brightness of an image? You can do all these things and more.ĬNS Image is not just for FileMaker Pro either. Have you ever needed to download an image from the internet into a container field? You can do that.
Have you ever wished you could split a PDF into multiple images and browse through them all from FileMaker. Have you ever wanted to have a small thumbnail in your database of a much larger image that is on the hard drive? You can do that. Have you ever needed to rotate an image in a container field? You can do that. The plug-in can do so much more with your images. Importing and Exporting images is only the beginning of CNS Image, though. You can even Import PDFs on Windows® and see a preview of the first page just like you have been able to do on Mac for years. You can use dialogs or hard-coded paths to locate and save images. The format of the image you Import or Export can be different than the original. However, you will find these basic functions much more powerful than FileMaker’s Import and Export. On the most basic level, you can use CNS Image to Import images from the hard drive into FileMaker container fields and Export images from container fields to the hard drive. You can work with images stored in container fields or stored on the hard drive. CNS Image is a FileMaker® plug-in for working with images.
