Table like experience within an edit form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 134

Hello,

 

I'm working on a Power App for someone and we have an edit form that's being submitted to a SharePoint List. There are 100+ fields within the SharePoint List so the Power App has a tabbed experience to keep related fields together.

 

On one of the tabs the client wants to have 24 field displayed like a table where there are 8 columns across and 3 rows down. Something like this but with 8 columns.

Each field has it's own column in the SharePoint List so it has its own data card within the edit form.

 

I'm looking on the best way to achieve this. Should I attempt to space all the data cards on such a way where it looks like a table? That would be a nightmare as it's hard enough to move around a data card using the x & y position.

 

Can I create a gallery within the edit form? And if so is there a way to add data to the gallery and it submits the data properly back to the SharePoint List? Or am I completely missing some other method to achieve this?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    You are trying to use an edit form in a way it wasn't intended to be used and bending yourself in to a pretzel trying to do it.  I suggest that you use a blank screen, place your controls wherever you like and use Patch() to save the data. For an example https://baizini-it.com/blog/index.php/2017/09/28/powerapps-101-create-your-own-forms/
