Slimming down our Filemaker plugin

Over the years our plugin got bigger and bigger. This is typically no problem with modern hard discs and automatic installation through databases or auto update.
But for some people size matters. For example with our Filemaker Runtime Shrinker we got a couple of responses. People doing runtimes love this tool.

But when they use our MBS Filemaker Plugin, the plugin itself can be a problem in size. We are now close to 10 MB which is for some people a problem. So we offer now a new service for slimmed down plugins. When you are ready to deliver your runtime solution, you inform us with a list of the MBS functions you use and we compile you a special copy of the current plugin version with all other functions disabled. This way the size of the plugin can easily fall from 10 MB down to 2 MB.

It's hard to predict the size of the plugin you get for your function set as some functions need more code than others. And we have to charge for this as this takes time to build. We are going to charge 49 Euro for each customized plugin copy. if you are interested, please contact us. Claris FileMaker Plugin
