What's new in 24U SimpleDialog Plug-In 4.0.1

The version 4.0 brings live-updating dialogs, basic styled text support, conditional value lists, and more. The plug-in has been also completely rewritten to provide native support for FileMaker Pro 11, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and Windows 7.

The following features and bugfixes have been introduced with the release of the version 4.0.1 of 24U SimpleDialog Plug-In:

List field does not show garbage on Mac OS X
List field correctly shows empty lines on Windows
List field is no longer sorted on Windows
Correct CR line endings are returned from multi line text on Mac OS X
SDialog_SetCalculation properly handles field titles
SDialog_Version function is no longer case sensitive
List field automatically scrolls to selected line if it is not visible
Parameter "lines" works correctly with the List field
Any field type can be used as CurrentValue parameter in InputDialog
Second input dialog opened fast after the first one does not cause the first one to remain on screen

The following changes have been introduced with the release of the version 4.0 of 24U SimpleDialog Plug-In which break backward compatibility with versions 3.x:

All indexing in the plug-in has been unified to be 1-based (starting from 1). This changed pop-up menu indexing by currentValue which has been 0-based in 3.x.
Pop-up menu separators are no longer counted to indexing. For example SDialog_Get function will return the same index regardless how many separators you add or remove from the menu.
