### Result

Returns OK or error.

### Description

Patched problem with Scroll Notifications.  
FileMaker 16.0.4 on MacOS 10.13.3 has a bug that can cause crashes with scroll gestures.  
Crash reports show message about "terminating with uncaught exception" and stack trace shows \_beginScrollGesture method called which posts a notification to a non-existing observer.  
The plugin, if activated with this function will watch for those notifications and just ignore them, so the observer is not called and the crash does not happen.  
### Release notes

- **Version 8.1**
    - Added [FM.PatchNotificationProblem](http://www.mbsplugins.eu/FMPatchNotificationProblem.shtml) function.
