User Picture alone and in Gallery

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by SoorajDathan 7

Hi,

 

When an image control is placed directly on Screen1 and i tried to use User().Image, it loads a single image.

 

But when i tried this into an Image control in a a Gallery, it is repeating 3-4 times with a scroll bar. Need help on how to control the number of occurances listed in a Gallery (used social feed)

 

Can some one also help with what is the differenc between User().Image and Office365Users.UserPhotoV2(User().Email)

 

Thanks,

Sooraj

    Hi @SoorajDathan 

     

    The number of rows that will get displayed in a gallery depends on the Items property of the gallery control. Formula used on first item is replicated to all the other items. In case you have used Office365Users.UserPhotoV2(User().Email) on image, this will copy same image on all the rows since User().Email fetches the current user email id. Can you share the expression used on "Items" property of your gallery control.
     
    The difference between User().Image and Office365Users.UserPhotoV2(User().Email) is that User().Image fetches the Image of current logged in user and Office365Users.UserPhotoV2(User().Email) returns the image of user whose email address is provided as an argument. In this case, User().Email returns current logged in user email address, so currently there is no difference between the two but if this email id is passed as a different one then the images will change.
     
    Hope this Helps!

    gallery will repeat as many times as items that are displayed in it.... if you unfiltered display a list of all your employees in it all their pictures will repeat one each.... so if you want a solo record in a gallery you have to filter it to be only the one result
