FileMaker Cluster Maps Formatting Bug Fixed | HomeBase Software

A QUICK FIX for Douglas Alder’s Cluster Maps demo–check it out if you missed it the first time, it’s a cool technique.

Previous versions of the Cluster Maps demo have suffered from a formatting issue. I have known about this for a while, but haven’t had the time to fix it. I also thought it was a Javascript problem and dreaded trying to fix it. A recent email from a reader prompted me to revisit the issue. Turns out there is a simple fix in FileMaker Pro to do with line breaks. In my script previously, I substituted out all carriage returns, which was required to get the Javascript to work. Unfortunately, there seems to be a spacing issue with the white popup box — it is not dynamic to the text. When the script generates the JSON text for each map point, the problem can be fixed by adding some ‘
tags.
