We are introducing a new set of plans at higher price points.
Existing apps stay on the old plans at the old prices, with access
to most of our new features. The new button types, the data editor,
named values and action formulas require you to upgrade to a 2023
plan.
Our new formula autocomplete system provides helpful suggestions
for what you may want to type next. To reference a field on any
screen, just type part of its name or label and let us do the rest.
All text properties can now be edited as templates. Change the text
as you normally would in the inspector and insert formula fragments
between special markers. This makes it much easier to edit email
bodies sent by your app.
The new Items property allows you to access all items, including
fields and buttons, as a single array. That makes it easy to
calculate the sum of all fields of a screen, or determine if all
fields of your app are valid, with short, readable formulas.
When multiple items are checked in the app designer that use the
same formula, this shared formula can now be edited. We also
describe the new special formula value Item and the related
performance improvements we've made.
The screens sidebar can now be resized, line breaks can be inserted
into formulas, sliders work better on touch screens and you get
more disk space for images. Our latest release is full of minor
features such as these.
The new function LET enables you to assign names to values for use
inside a single formula. LET can make formulas shorter and easier
to read and can help them run faster.
Named values allow you to assign names to values returned from
formulas. Unlike hidden fields, named values can represent anything
a formula can return, including screens and arrays.
Browse buttons and the BROWSE function allow you to determine if
links open in a new web browser window or tab or replace the app.
An app-wide default setting can also be changed, which also affects
where text box links open.
