Hi,

I've tried a couple of things but cant get it to work. I have a drop down, with a few options to choose from.

On the dropdown itself on the OnSelect or OnChange Property, I have tried just with 1 of the dropdowns selections first:

If("Part B" in RequestForDropdown.Selected.Value, Navigate(PartBScreen,Fade))

doesn't work, so I created a next button and on its OnSelect I set the same formula, again nothing happens.

Also tried:

If(RequestForDropdown.Selected.Value = "Part B", Navigate(PartBScreen, Fade))

Neither work when I hit the play button

Ideally what I want is for the users not to press a next button, rather as soon as a user selects from the dropdown, I want the user to be navigated to another screen, is this possible?

I have the same question (0)

HI @WarrenBelz

Now it just started working, all I did was save and publish... and without close the designer went back to it after 5 mins and hey presto, soon as I select the drop down it navigated to the correct screen,

Thanks for your responses

Hi @Anonymous ,
I am clutching at straws here - the code is perfectly fine.
Just put
Navigate(PartBScreen, Fade)
and make sure that works.

HI @WarrenBelz

Yes that's what I've tried and simply doesn't do anything, tried it both on the OnChange and OnSelect, cant see what i'm missing, if anything, or is it just PowerApps having a moment!
I've put a label on the screen, and can see the label is displaying what is selected.

Just the navigation part is not working

Re: Navigate to different screens from dropdown selection

Hi @Anonymous , Your code syntax is correct - the second one is better as In is not a delegable filter.
If( RequestForDropdown.Selected.Value = "Part B", Navigate(PartBScreen, Fade) )
Put a label on the screen and set the Text Property to
RequestForDropdown.Selected.Value
And see if it shows "Part B" when this is selected in the DropDown.
In relation to your second question, you just put the code in the OnChange property of the DropDown.
