!! Getting Started: on the desktop
You can open GoMaps.fmp12 on your desktop or laptop and play with "most" of GoMap's features. Navigate to the map, filter the list of properties, and click on a point on the map to see details.
(The only thing that doesn't work are the links IN the map popover images: the "View Record" link only works on hosted files or in FileMaker Go.)
If you open all the files (every file in the Host and Local folders) you can even see how the sync works: change a few properties in GoMapsHosted and then navigate to the home screen in GoMaps and click the "pull" icon to bring those changes down to the GoMaps file (that would normally be on your iPad).
The make some changes to a property in GoMaps and use the "push" icon to send those changes to GoMapsHosted. You can [[Customize The Sync | customize this sync]] later, creating "round trip" syncs or syncing just individual records, but by default, GoMaps pushes or pulls anything changed since the last sync.
