Portal Rows


[et_pb_section fb_built="1" _builder_version="4.0.1"][et_pb_row _builder_version="4.0.1"][et_pb_column type="4_4" _builder_version="4.0.1"][et_pb_text _builder_version="4.0.1" text_text_color="#000000" text_font_size="15px"]

Because I often use multiple portals as a quick way to show a list of records and then allowing the user to click on any row to load that specific record, I often find myself struggling with what the starting row of each column should be set at, especially when the number of rows (which is determined by the size of the layout) is going to be an odd number, i.e., 28.

To solve this problem, I created a small FileMaker Go utility file that I can keep on my phone and get the answers without having to work them out in my head.

Shown below is the results from the file so if, for example, you have 16 rows in the portal, the 2nd instance starts with Row 17, the 3rd with row 33, the 4th with 49, and so on.

I sincerely hope you will find it as useful as I am already finding it.
