Highlight Notes and Comments in Your Calendar

Inline Notes in DayBack Calendar

The latest DayBack extension adds an icon to your events when there is a comment present that matches your criteria. You can use your own FileMaker field for the comments themselves, and surface an icon or an icon-and-an-editor so folks can make changes without leaving the calendar. 

If you’re using a FileMaker layout for your events inside DayBack, maybe you’d want to render comments inside a portal in that layout instead. But having the icon visible in DayBack, along with the ability to preview the comment can make the calendar feel a lot faster.

Details and example code are here:
