Hello. I know this has already been said but I would like to also request improved support for all things time related. I did not buy FM Touch to use with FileMaker Pro. I bought FM Touch first then got FileMaker Pro to create my apps for FM Touch. It is awesome for a novice like myself to be able to create my own personalized iPhone Apps. My first project contains lots of time stamps and I had formulas to round times to the nearest 15 or 30 minutes. I was disappointed when these did not work but I am confident that this functionality will be added soon. For now my workaround is to auto enter the time on record creation in both the Start and End fields. Then the script sets the $variable to the newly created Start time, goes to the previous record and sets the End field to the $variable. Now I can use the picker to round the end time to whatever I want. Enter a note in my Notes field. I don't need to round the Start field (Except on the first record) because I have a Done button with a script that sets my manually rounded End field as a $variable, then goes to next record and sets the Start field to the rounded End field from the previous. Then it takes me back to what I call my Home Screen which is basically a collection of buttons to go various places. For now I have to manually do the math (10:00am to 12:00pm = 2hrs) for each record before pressing Done. It's working for me but it will be nice when time calcs and functions are supported.
1. Improved support for setting custom Time/Date formatting. I would like a field to contain Time and Date but only display time or vise versa.
2. Ability to do calculations with Time/Date such as difference between twoTime/Dates and rounding etc.
3. Get functions for current Time/Date.
4. This is not time related but in FM Pro when I use goto layout from my parent table to a child table and then goto layout to return to the parent it always returns to the record I was originally on. FM Touch always goes to record # 1. I am using request record # to get the result I want but it would be nice if FM Touch would just return me to the original record just like FM Pro does.
Thanks guys.
