Let's support auto-upgrade for controls

Posted on by 20

I have been upgrading a Power App that was provided to my department. It has been a lot of "invested" time to upgrade button by button, if there is an option to use new controls, there should be a direct way to upgrade them without adding one by one and copying and pasting the same code for the onSelects.

This is a good example:

We have the classic and the "modern," but considering that this is HTML, the CSS should be able to be applied without you creating button by button and replacing them one by one.

    Hi @federico-eu-lu ,

     

    You can select multiple buttons in the tree view using ctrl and left button clicking, then you can edit the formulas at once for all of them.

    Hi v-jefferni,

    This is not my topic:

    You cannot upgrade the buttons. Considering that this is HTML, not native app controls, upgrading or applying the new CSS should be relatively easy. I speak a normal web developer.

    Hi @federico-eu-lu ,

     

    Based on my test, once you add a Control into the App, a GUID will be generated for it, as the result, you cannot ADD new controls into the App using code but can only modify or delete.

    Exactly, and that's my point, there should be a way, especially, if you have multiple buttons, the amount of work can be considerable, and again, this is HTML, CSS and JS, the "upgrade" should be possible. If these were native apps, I could understand why there wouldn't be an easy path since I have also built Android apps and to update one thing is quite complex.
