    Hi Sigi, 

     

    Is the 2nd gallery a gallery of related records of the account selected in the 1st gallery? If so, how are you filtering the 2nd gallery? In other words, how are you referencing the 1st gallery while filtering the 2nd gallery? Are you using something like Gallery1.Selected?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi @shawkinson ,

     

    Can you share more details with your apps? which formula do you use to move the selected record to another gallery? Are two galleries from the same data source?

     

    I have made a test on my side, just set Table(FirstGallery.Selected) to Items property of the second gallery.

    @v-siky-msft 

    Thank you that worked - If I want that Gallery  to be loaded from multiple other galleries, how would I accomplish that? - I don't want to create a new form with a gallery for each selected previous gallery.

    Thanks,

    Sigi

    Hi @shawkinson ,

     

    All gallery items should come from the same data source.

    If the data sources of multiple other galleries are different from each other, there is no way to load them in a combined Gallery.

    If their data sources are the same, Set the each gallery selected record to be a variable: Set(var_Gallery1,Gallery1.Selected), use set the Items property of the combined Gallery to [var_Gallery1, var_Gallery2, var_Gallery3,..], and set the field to ThisItem.Value.'Field Name'.

    Hi @shawkinson ,

     

    I am not sure if you want to select one item from any of three galleries and display the one in another gallery, or if you want to select items from all three galleries and display the items in another gallery.

    If you only want to select and display one items of these three gallery:

    1. Set "Set(var_SelectedItem, Gallery1.Selected)" to OnSelect of Gallery1

    2. Set "Set(var_SelectedItem, Gallery2.Selected)" to OnSelect of Gallery2 

    3. Set "Set(var_SelectedItem, Gallery3.Selected)" to OnSelect of Gallery3

    4. Set var_SelectedItem to Items property to the final gallery to show the selected item.

    5. The field of gallery is like ThisItem.Value.FieldName

     

    If you want to select and display three items of three galleries:

    1. Set "Set(var_SelectedItem1, Gallery1.Selected)" to OnSelect of Gallery1

    2. Set "Set(var_SelectedItem2, Gallery2.Selected)" to OnSelect of Gallery2 

    3. Set "Set(var_SelectedItem3, Gallery3.Selected)" to OnSelect of Gallery3

    4. Set [var_SelectedItem1,var_SelectedItem2 ,var_SelectedItem3] to Items property to the final gallery to show the selected items.

    5. The field of gallery is like ThisItem.Value.FieldName

    The option below is what I would like to use - However, when changing the properties of the first gallery to move to the final gallery, it does not do anything onSelect.

    Any idea's why that would be?

    See attached screenshots - I am not getting any errors on the formulas

    Thanks,

    Sigi

    Hi @shawkinson ,

     

    In my test, the codes work well, the only difference is that you gallery is in the Data Card.

    Could you try to get the gallery out of the Data card and try again?

    Hi @shawkinson ,

     

    Do you mean you want to navigate to the 2nd gallery when select the item?

    Sorry for my negligence.

    You need to add Navigate(CreateActivities,ScreenTransition.None) after the Set() formula of each OnSelect property. 

    Please take reference:

    1. Set  "Set(var_SelectedItem, Gallery1.Selected); Navigate(CreateActivities,ScreenTransition.None)" to OnSelect of Gallery1

    2. Set  "Set(var_SelectedItem, Gallery2.Selected); Navigate(CreateActivities,ScreenTransition.None)" to OnSelect of Gallery2 

    3. Set  "Set(var_SelectedItem, Gallery3.Selected); Navigate(CreateActivities,ScreenTransition.None)" to OnSelect of Gallery3

    4. Set var_SelectedItem to Items property to the final gallery to show the selected item.

    Best regards,

    Sik
