Combobox in mobile view cutoff

Posted on by ElvirBotic

Hello,

I have a combo box in a powerapp to allow a user to pick a building ID. However, when you select the combobox in the form on a mobile device the menu is on the far right hand side and cut off. I have a picture for reference. How can I get this to be centered on the screen and responsive to mobile? I need the search capability as well.

This can happen if the app was not built using responsive containers but you should still see a scrollbar on the bottom of the screen.

Hi,

Are you seeing this when you are testing the app in Power Apps Studio? Or from the Mobile device you are deploying to?

If you are just seeing it in Power Apps Studio, then verify that it displays the same way on the Mobile device. For the most part, the popup for selecting items should show up right below the Combo Box. There are not any settings I could find to adjust where it shows up.

If you built this app with one of the templates, can you let us know which one and we can try to duplicate what you are seeing. Alternatively, you could right click on the control, select "View code", and paste the code here so we can see if there is anything strange. This is an example of the code:

- ComboBox1:
Control: Classic/ComboBox
Properties:
DefaultSelectedItems: =Parent.Default
Items: =Choices([@'20241212PLListTest'].'Choices')
Height: =28.44
PaddingBottom: =3.56
PaddingLeft: =3.56
PaddingRight: =2.81
PaddingTop: =2.81
Size: =5.20
Width: =184.41
X: =16.87
Y: =69.69
