Hello, community,
I am building a power apps solution where I am using a data table to display data. I am using a sort button on the column header to sort data.

the problem is when I scroll the data table the sort button remains static and does not move with the column header scrolling.

pasting the image below:

how to achieve that.

Re: Scrollable buttons with datatable

Hi @hiteshgautam :

Could you tell me :

Do you want the sort buttons to scroll together when you scroll the data table?

If so,I'm afraid that is not available.The key is that icon controls cannot be added to the data table.

If you need this feature,I suggest you post your ideals in this fourm:

As an alternative, I suggest you use a fixed row of buttons to sort the data table.I've made a test for your reference:

1\My data source

ClearCollect( MyDateSource, {Client:"1",Facility:1,StartDate:Date(2020,10,2)}, {Client:"2",Facility:2,StartDate:Date(2020,10,3)}, {Client:"2",Facility:3,StartDate:Date(2020,10,4)} )

2\Add two buttons

Button1-OnSelelct

UpdateContext({SortDescending1: !SortDescending1}) /*SortDescending1 is my custom variable*/

Button2-OnSelelct

UpdateContext({SortDescending2: !SortDescending2})/*SortDescending2 is my custom variable*/

3\Add data table control and set it's items property to:

SortByColumns( MyDateSource, "Client", If(SortDescending1,Descending,Ascending), "StartDate", If(SortDescending2,Descending,Ascending) )

Best Regards,

Bof
