Posted on by simno

Good morning everyone,
In Power Apps is there a way to set a maximum height for a label with AutoHeight?
I need a label that expands in height for a maximum of rows and then stops, is this possible?

Thank you

Hi,

I don't think AutoHeight and a min/max height condition is possible.
A workaround could be working with 2 conditional labels.

(1) We will use the first label for the auto height functionality.

//(1) The label will only show if not blank and if label2 is not visible !IsBlank(Self.Text) && !Label2.Visible //(2) auto height property will be true true

(2) The second label will only show once we have reached the max height threshold:

(1) Visible property: Label1.Height > 140

The second label would have a static height and be scrollable.

I hope this helps!

pls try the following:

Add a secondary (hidden) label with AutoHeight enabled. Set its Text property to the same text as your primary label.

Use this secondary label to calculate the actual height required.

Set the primary label’s Height property with a conditional formula: - Min(AutoHeightLabel.Height, MaxHeight)
