I’m still ecstatic about being able to copy and past methods (and portions thereof) instead of the FileMaker way!

A low priority feature request, though, would be the ability to import (or just access for c & p) methods from other solutions. I have, for instance, a prior solution that has a lot of the code that I’ll need in this one. Opening two occurrences seems a bit unstable, so I need to copy the methods from the old solution and save them somewhere else so I can access them while I’m working on the newer solution.

An alternative might be the ability to export all the methods from a solution as text files. (?)

I’m sure this would be pretty far down the priority list, but would anyone else find this useful? For that matter, has someone found a quicker way to move methods from solution to solution, that would make this feature request moot?

we are planning module support in servoy so that you can include a solution as a module in youre head solution. Then you can use methods from that solution.

Sounds great!
