How to get specific gallery

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Mattw112b 1,088

I have a screen with multiple galleries on it.

 

When someone clicks on an item I would like to have a 'popup' that displays more details for the item selected.

 

This is very easy with one gallery.

 

But how do I know what gallery the item was selected from with multiple galleries?

 

Is there something like a Gallery1.Selected = true or Selected.Gallery.Name= Gallery1 or something else?

 

Maybe onselect I set a variable with the Gallery name?  (How do I get the gallery name) then in the popup filter on that??

 

Thanks for any ideas.

 

Thanks,

Terry

    Hi @Mattw112IG ,

    I would set a Variable on the OnSelect of each gallery. I am assuming these galleries have the same data source, if not still possible with the same structures, but I will deal with this one

    So if you had something like this on the first gallery OnSelect and so on for the rest

    Set(vChosen,"OneChosen")

    the Item of the form would be

    Switch(
 vChosen,
 "OneChosen",
 Gallery1.Selected,
 "TwoChosen",
 Gallery2.Selected
) //and so on for the rest.
