Switch form from view to edit with a button for multiple forms on one screen

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 59

I have an app that is allowing a team to keep track of progress for a technicians work. I have multiple forms in one screen as there are different aspects I need to capture throughout the year at different times. I was unable to use the one form and move the fields around in a desirable format for viewing and editing. Again, new to PowerApps. 

 

What I am looking to achieve:

 

I want the screen to have the form in view mode when the user gets there, If they need to edit either form they can select a "edit" icon that brings them to the edit screen, (which I think I have completed for one of the forms on the screen). I am unable to get the other forms to work using the same button. The second issue is that when they hit the save button, I wish for them to go back to the view mode. As of now it stays in the edit mode screen. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    @Kopistars11 regarding the first issue, you can add an EditForm function onto your Edit Icon multiple times per the number of Forms. For example:

     

    EditForm(Form1);
    EditForm(Form2);
    EditForm(Form3)

     

    Regarding the second question, ensure the DefaultMode property of your Edit Form is set to:

     

    FormMode.View

     

    To ensure the Form returns to View Mode after hitting the Save button, on the OnSucess property of your Edit Form, enter:

     

    ViewForm(Form1)
