QuickTime support
You may notice the following differences when you work with QuickTime in FileMaker Pro 11:
1 You can drag QuickTime movies between container fields, but you cannot drag QuickTime movies to the
desktop. When you drag a QuickTime movie, you see the outline but not the movie poster.
1 Windows: When you are resizing a window in which a QuickTime movie is playing, the movie briefly
stops displaying until you have finished resizing the window.
For more information about using QuickTime with FileMaker Pro, see Help.
Third-party plug-in application support
FileMaker Pro 11 for Mac OS supports only Mach-O third-party plug-in applications. Code Fragment
Manager (CFM) third-party plug-in applications are no longer supported.
