Aceoffix V7 introduces the following new features
1. To adapt to more modern programming frameworks and technologies, the Aceoffix v7 server-side has abandoned the old server-setup.exe installation package and the aceoffix-runtime folder. The server-side no longer requires installing the Aceoffix server-side components via an installation package. Instead, it now only uses a direct reference to Aceoffix7.dll, which avoids the hassle of installation and server restarts.
2. Goodbye to Outdated NPAPI Plugin Technology and IE Core: Aceoffix V7 has been completely revamped to embrace new technologies, frameworks, and systems, providing better support for various browsers.
3. Support for the Latest JS Features and Syntax: It is optimized for the latest frontend frameworks such as Vue, React, Angular, ensuring smoother front-end and back-end separation. It also supports client-side cookies and tokens in front-end.
4. Support for Various Dialogs: It allows the use of div-based dialogs created with Vue and other frontend frameworks above the Aceoffix control.
5. New Developer Debugging Tools Added: A built-in console similar to Chrome DevTools has been introduced, enabling frontend developers to debug JavaScript and adjust page layouts with ease.
6. Frontend JS Enhancements: The AddCustomToolButton function has been added to the frontend JS, enabling developers to add custom buttons and control custom toolbars and Office toolbars.
7. Version Information: Clicking the icon in the top-left corner of the client control displays the current Aceoffix control version and Office version.
8. Simplified Event Handling: There is no need to define control JS events in the backend or name them; frontend developers can directly write JS events with predefined names.
9. Default Save Prompt: There is no need to check IsDirty or intercept close events; the control defaults to prompting for save.
10. Changed Client Invocation Method: The method to invoke the control has been changed from document.getElementById(“AceoffixCtrl1”) to aceoffixctrl.
11. Simplified Object Interfaces: The client no longer supports native Office VBA object interfaces; all interfaces have been simplified and are now JS-based.
12. Enhanced FileMaker Integration: The new version of FileMaker no longer requires the AceBrowser window to pop up for execution. Instead, it can be executed asynchronously via JavaScript on the client’s main web page, with real-time progress messages. It also supports batch tasks.
