Make a gallery hidden the moment I open an app

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello,

Im trying to make an app where it begins with only a search and a combo box. When the user inputs something into either one or both a gallery list is shown with those filters applied. I figured it out and the gallery isn’t shown when nothing is selected except for when I first open the app. I have to input something and erase it and then the screen is blank and works properly. How would I make that gallery hidden even when I have just opened it?

Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Make the Gallery Visible

CountRows(Self.AllItems) > 0

Thank you for taking the time to answer! It still isn’t exactly working the way I want. To clarify, I want to open up the app and have a blank screen with a search bar and combo box. When a user types into that search bar with a persons name, a gallery will pop up with that persons info. Or if they choose which department they are in with the combobox, a gallery with everyone in that department will show up. If they unselect or erase it, the screen will be blank again. I am current using this on the visible property of the gallery:

!IsEmpty(DepartmentFilter.SelectedItems) || !IsBlank(Name_Filter)

It works for when I select and unselect items. The gallery disappears when i unselect something and appears again when I select another thing. The problem I am having is when I initially open the app. The gallery that I want to be hidden is shown when I first open the app until I select and then unselect something?

@Anonymous ,

Another alternative on the Visible (you need to add the output of your control)

Len(DepartmentFilter.Selected.????) > 0 || Len(Name_Filter) > 0

You might also reset those two at Screen OnVisible
