Mac UI violation, command-` to switch windows doesn't work

BearAlbrecht Jul 22, 2014 10:34 AM

Summary

Product

FileMaker Pro

Version

FMP Advanced 13.0 v3

One should be able to switch windows within an application with command-` particularly since Apple owns FileMaker ... but it doesn't work. I have two databases open and I have to go to the mouse to switch. Not good.

Open two databases. Try to switch from the keyboard like in any modern program. It doesn't work.

Expected result

switch windows

Actual result

nothing

Exact text of any error message(s) that appear

none

     Bear Albrecht:



     Thank you for the post.



     I am unable to replicate. To attempt to replicate, I performed the following steps:



     1. Opened two .fmp12 files with FileMaker Pro 13.0v3 Advanced

     2. Pressed ⌘-`

     3. Pressed ⌘-`



     I tested both Mac OS X 10.8.5 and Mac OS X 10.9.4. With both operating systems the application switches back and forth between the database windows.



     Please let me know if I am missing a step to replicate.

It's not doing it now. I don't know why it was acting that way before. Except that the machine does not have as much RAM as I'd like (but it will by the end of the day.)
