Navigation Menu Default Issue

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30

I have created a navigation menu using Collections.

 

I can navigate from various screens well when clicking on the individual menu. However, if I come from another screen with a Home button on it, I am being redirected to the Home screen perfectly, but the menu being highlighted is the second item in my gallery.

 

I tried putting the following on the Home Screen's gallery's Default setting but to no avail.

 

Lookup(NavigationMenu, Row=1)

 

In the FillTemplate, I have the following:

If(ThisItem.Row = _selectedTutorial.Row, RGBA(220, 220, 220, 1), RGBA(0,0,0,0))

    Hi @omd001 ,

    What exactly is NavigationMenu (is it a List) and is Row a field in the list?

    Hi @WarrenBelz, thanks for your speedy reply.

    It is a collection, see below. The idea is actually from this blog, however it didn't specify defaulting a gallery item for an individual screen.

    Hi @omd001 ,

    The Default should be OK (except for the capitalising of LookUp)

    LookUp(
     NavigationMenu, 
     Row=1
    )

    The TemplateFill can simply be

    If(
     ThisItem.IsSelected, 
     RGBA(220, 220, 220, 1), 
     White
    )

    Hi @WarrenBelz , I have tried that many times but to no avail. I tried the following:

     

    1. In Home Screen > Gallery > Default: 

    LookUp(
     NavigationMenu, 
     Row=1
    )

     2. In Screen 2 > Gallery > Default

    LookUp(
     NavigationMenu, 
     Row=2
    )

    etc.

    HI @omd001 ,

    What are the Items of the Gallery?

    I found the answer @WarrenBelz 
    I have to set the Screen's OnVisible to the following:

    Set(yourvariable, {Row: 1, Title: "Home", Image: yourimage})

     

    And then you have to do the same for other screens with the correct Row ID.
