This
screencast demonstrates a half dozen Panorama
features that don't really fit anywhere else, but
are each really cool. First up is
Elastic Forms, which allows
graphics, text and images to intelligently stretch
and morph to adjust to different window sizes.
You'll see this feature in action, and also see how
easy it is to set up. With Panorama you are
definitely not limited to one size fits all.
Next up is Calendars. Panorama makes it easy to build custom monthly calendars into any application. In addition to traditional date picking and appointment scheduling you'll see some unique ways calendars can be integrated into a database application.
Ever feel like you wanted to be in more than one place at a time? We can't clone you, but the next segment demonstrates how Panorama allows you to create Clone Windows that let you simultaneously work with multiple records in a single database.
The next topic is Web Integration, the ability to directly access web sites to automatically retrieve information -- no separate web browser or user interaction is required. Examples include FedEx package tracking, maps, address and phone listings (white pages), us post office address information and much more. If information is available on the web you can bring it into Panorama. A related topic is automatic Email. Panorama makes it easy to send e-mail to anyone or everyone in your databases.
The screencasts wind up with Printing & Reports. For most of us the paperless office is getting closer, but still hasn't completely arrived yet. Fortunately, Panorama makes it easy to create just about any type of paper output you can think of (including built-in mail merge for custom mass snail-mailings).
