Ok, so I was having a real challenge getting things to behave in a one column form. Trying to force two data cards to sit beside each other is seemingly impossible although I did get it to work once. 🙂
Realizing that what I was trying to accomplish was really a two column layout anyway, I switched to such and set it to snap to columns.
This is beautiful. Drag the data cards that need the width across both columns and tada.
BUT... in the 4th 'row' of the form, I have two data cards side by side, each in the appropriate column. There is nothing greater than 40pix in height in either data card.
But both of those cards are setting their height to 122. If I manually set it to 40, it just reverts.
I cannot figure how why it's choosing to make the card as tall as it is.
So I solved it but have zero idea WHY it was failing in the first place.
I have 2 cards side by side. X values are no problem and everything fits nicely.
Both cards have their height value set to 40 and every element within the card is 40 or less.
I manually starting removing every single reference value with a hard value.
When I got to the error message the problem went away.
Both cards had their Y position defined as Parent.Height - 10. This is the default Powerapps value for the error label control. As soon as I manually changed it to 30 the data card collapsed.
So riddle me that? LOL. 40-10=30 but not that 30.
Absolutely I can and will. Just as soon as I figure out a way to do it without multiple screenshots.
Can you share their properties please. Wondering if its set to auto anything
