You can't change control properties directly at runtime. Set the Visible property of the group to a variable and then set the variable to false in the onSelect property.

@Pstork1 gotcha, but i make the "group" visible based on a dropdown choice

Ie Visible property for group - If(DataCardValue40_1.Selected.Value = "New", true, false)

Can I put something in DataCardValue40_1 to set the variable if the value is New in the dropdowm?

Change the dropdown to also set the value of the variable in the OnChange or ONSelect property

Hi @wonka1234 ,

You can use a variable in Power Apps to control the visibility of a group based on the value selected in a dropdown. Here's how you can achieve that:

Create a variable in Power Apps. You can do this in the "OnVisible" property of the screen or in the app's variables section. Let's call it ShowGroup:

Set(ShowGroup, false) // Initialize the variable as false

In the group's Visible property, use the ShowGroup variable to control its visibility:

ShowGroup

Now, in the OnChange property of your dropdown (DataCardValue40_1 in your case), you can set the ShowGroup variable based on the selected value. If the selected value is "New," set ShowGroup to true, otherwise set it to false:

If(DataCardValue40_1.Selected.Value = "New", Set(ShowGroup, true), Set(ShowGroup, false))

With this setup, when the user selects "New" in the dropdown, the ShowGroup variable will be set to true, making the group visible. If any other value is selected, the variable will be set to false, hiding the group.

Thanks!!!
