Form data cards keep rearranging

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Frac 200
Hello,  i have a form and all of my data cards keep rearranging on me.  This seems to happen when i try to resize any of the data cards.  I have "tabs" which set the value for varSelected, and then the visible property for each card is set up to corespond to one of the tabs.  
 
If(varSelected = 1,true,false)
 
 
This is not the first time i have set up an app like this, just the first time the fields are constantly in flux.  why is this happening?

    The reason this is happening is because when you resize data cards inside a form control, Power Apps tries to optimise layout automatically, especially when cards are hidden or shown dynamically using the Visible property.
     
    If you want full control:

    Turn Off Snap to Columns

    • Select the form control.

    • In the right-hand properties pane, set "Snap to columns" to Off.

    • This gives you manual control over card placement and prevents auto-reflow
     
    If this helps, please like. If this solves the problem, mark as a solution.
