We created a power app screen on the basis of a form (referencing one table), with different datatypes (options, text, etc.). When previewing the screen the form is not displayed anymore. (maybe because the entries are still empty). But we need the form for users to fill the different entries of the table in the first place.
Could someone help?
Hi @Anonymous ,
1\ If your table has no data yet, you can use the newform function to create an item.
Add a button control and set its OnSelect property to:
NewForm(your form)
2\ If your table already has data and you want to display one of its items, you could use the item property of the form.
For example:
If you want to show the first Item on the form,you could try this formula on the Item property of you form control:
First(your table name)
And please don’t forget to set the mode of your form to edit or view.
You could use button control to set the mode of your form.
EditForm(your form)
ViewForm(your form)

Hi Partner,
Even though no data source is associated , form still displays the controls added on screen.
There is only one possibility. Please change the color of the form and then do a preview to see if the problem is simple.
Also check the size of the form. In rare scenarios the form size will be too short that It is not getting displayed in Preview. Check the width and height of the form.
