Coming up with 'This formula uses scope which is not presently supported for evaluation' and cannot work out for the life of me.

 

Any ideas?

    Which property are you trying to set  ?

    Trying to change the colour depending on the status set. The data is derived from a SP list, where column is set to choices. Dropdown within PowerApp that aligns to these choices.

    I think you are trying to set color of control which is outside the gallery or you have selected wrong property of the control instead of color . If you can post whole screenshot then it would be good .Thanks

    I think it has something to do with the Data Type. The 'RAG Status' is stating it's a record, whilst the Value is stating it should be text ... not sure how to fix this

    instead of direct color name try giving Color.red ,Color.Green etc. or RGBA color format
