Finding problems

For solutions you inherit or for building complex ongoing solutions, InspectorPro tracks down and identifies problems, so you can continually improve your work:

With InspectorPro's help, you can:

  • Map problems to the respective links, fields, functions tables, and scripts
  • Easily identify disabled scripts
  • Add notes and tabs for effective team collaboration

InspectorPro's comprehensive list of detected problems are grouped into 2 categories: Area Problems, such as a button assigned to a script that's now missing. Calculation Problems, including missing functions, fields or tables.

References

What and where is this item referenced?

As a developer, you want to easily know all the places where a particular item is referenced.

  • Continually view and navigate to detailed references in a tear-away window
  • Easily identify disabled or dormant references
  • Quickly determine all reference locations

For FileMaker Teams

Collaboration & Communication

  • Add notes and tabs for effective developer workflow
  • Link back into the Analysis, pointing to problem fields and scripts
  • Highlight dormant code, such as disabled script steps

Enter a note on any problem, or mark it as fixed so you can work through the list of problems as a team. InspectorPro shows a coffee cup icon if the problem exists on dormant code, for example a script step that is disabled.

Trigger update notifications in Slack when:

  • A solution is added, or deleted from InspectorPro
  • An analysis begins or completes processing
  • A note is added by a development team member

Testimonials

Inspector is a must-have for any serious FileMaker developer. I can't tell you how many hours I have wasted looking for things that Inspector will now help me find in a few moments.

We depend on InspectorPro as part of our workflow. Nothing gets delivered to clients without running it first. We never delete scripts, fields, layouts, tables, etc. without first checking InspectorPro for references. It's a time-saver and helps us improve the quality of the solutions we deliver.
