Is there anyway other than creating an Applet to use the doMenu command

layout mode automatically -


Please correct me if I'm wrong (it's been a while since I've used Filemaker), but isn't there a ScriptMaker action for 'go to layout'? Seems like the ideal solution to me.

That script step will display, for example, layout 5 but the application will remain in browse, find or preview mode.


In OS X you might try system events, don't forget to turn on "use assistive devices" in the Universal Assistance prefs pane.

tell application "FileMaker Pro" to activate
tell application "System Events"
	tell process "Filemaker Pro"
		keystroke "l" using command down
	end tell
end tell
