36:35 That can be simplified by adding the _"Self"_ object to the *Constructor.* If this _"Self"_ object is set in the *Constructor,* it will set the *myWinMain* property, and invoke the *doSetup* method. This would decrease the amount of code from 1% to 0.3% 🤓

20:30 A nice functionality in the JSON plugin is accepting incompatible values, like FolderItem, Color, DateTime, etc… by accepting the value, convert it to a string value. • Color could be converted to a HEX value • DateTime could be converted to a SQLDateTime string, or an empty string if the DateTime value is Nil. • DateTime could alternatively be converted to a number _(UNIX timestamp)_ • FolderItem could be converted to a ShellPath, or something like that. This results in valid JSON data, that can be easily converted back to the original FolderIrem-, Color- and DateTime values.

Hi Stefanie (MBS), I have a question the plugin (SceneKit) is probably used for video games right? Not necessarily 3D, But 2D or 2.5D?

I'd really like to see PDF improvements on placing field boxes on a PDF - or a way for the plug-in to detect if a PDF already has the fields made. I make many databases with IRS pdfs and if I was able to export the PDF with the editable fields that would be great. I know the plugin allows for creating these but I find it very difficult. Possibly a more detailed PDF Video Example showing how you would go about creating your custom PDF fields on that PDF document. The examples shown are very basic. The complexity of some reports would be something like this. www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040se.pdf I find it challenging to place the Text Fields in the PDF with the PDF plugin, especially if you can search for text like the Columns in that PDF I attached above.

Our DynaPDF functions already can list the fields in a file, create/change/delete fields. see blog post here: www.mbs-plugins.com/archive/2018-04-21/PDF_Forms_with_MBS_Plugin/monkeybreadsoftware_blog_filemaker We may be able to add more functions if needed.

@@MonkeybreadSoftware But I have to use DynaPDF to create the field first right? I cant use a pdf editor to add fields and then import that PDF into FM and access those fields, it's a little challenging creating fields using DynaPDF when you cant reference text near where you want it.

@@thethinkstudio1200 No, you can use whatever software you want to create the form fields and then read/write values with our plugin or change the fields, e.g. turn on into read only. And to create with DynaPDF you can use our DynaPDF.FindText function to find the label and place the field next to it.

@@MonkeybreadSoftware I don't know if I'm miss understanding. So I have my PDF document, when I open this document I already have text box fields that allow me to start typing data inside the field text box. All these field Text boxes have defined field names. Some of the pdf field names are like f1_1 and f1_2, I was trying to use the MBS demo file "Fill Form Fields" Once this database is open I upload the PDF document with editable fields already created. In the "Fill Form Fields" Database You have a script step SetTextFieldValue; $pdf; "Field Name"; "Value"; ""; "Left" ---- Just to test I changed a Field from the database fields name already set to a field name that would match up with my pdf I added, "f1_1" and give a random value, but When I run the script the PDF Field doesn't become filled.
