Hi All,

I was using the Tablist and it was working properly until 23-July-2024. All of a sudden my Tablist started sorting the tabs in alphabetical order. I query my SharePoint list to get the tabs value and also have a order column in SharePoint that sorts it as per the order i need. When i set it to the items property in Modern tablist, the tablist does not follow the order. And sorts is alphabetically. This has happened all of a sudden. As soon as you add a Field value property in the tablist it orders it alphabetically. Even when you set manually your tablist Items Property to Table({TabName:"Home"},{TabName:"About Us"},{TabName:"Contact Us"}) and Field Property to TabName it sorts it alphabetically. Earlier this would not happen.

Please advice

I've just upgraded to the 3.24082.12 (Europe) and the sorting issue I was experiencing with the 3.24081.10 (Europe) has been resolved.

This problem seems to return with new version 3.24081.10 (Europe).

Last version 3.24075.18 had fixed it.

PowerApps is great, but last weeks/months it feels like in beta-program.

Never know, if a new version can be published without new problems.

Today I update my app to the authoring version 3.24075.9 and the issue is fixed.

I try regard to previous authoring version 3.24074.14 and also 3.24073.22 and the issue is fixed in both authoring versions.

I have the same issue, my code has worked for around 8 months no problems, then a few days ago, order all over the place as it is now ordering alphabetical - not wanted! (names changed due to sensitivity of content.

ClearCollect(

collTabs,[{Name: "One",Screen: ScreenOne}, {Name: "Two",Screen: ScreenTwo},{Name: "Three",Screen: ScreenThree},

{Name: "Four",Screen: ScreenFour}, {Name: "Five",Screen: ScreenFive}, {Name: "Six",Screen: ScreenSix},

{Name: "Seven",Screen: Seven}, {Name: "Eight",Screen: ScreenEight}]);

I will log this with MS and the Power Apps team today.

Modern Tablist Sorting in Alphabetical Order All of a sudden

Hello,

I'm experiencing an issue with the TabList in the App Formula property. Whenever I publish a new app, the menu items sort alphabetically by default. This behavior disrupts the intended order of my menu.

I hope Microsoft addresses this soon or that someone in the community finds a solution that doesn't involve rolling back to a previous version.

For now, I am numbering my items to maintain the correct order. However, I'm also forced to use alphabetical characters to prevent the number 10 from appearing in the second position, which looks unprofessional.

Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I have the same issue in version 3.24073.20 (Canada). Rolling back to version 3.24072.14 corrects this.

My table is:

SortByColumns(
Table(
{Id:01,DocumentType:"Info",Label:"Property Information"}
,{Id:02,DocumentType:"News",Label:"All News"}
,{Id:03,DocumentType:"Mail",Label:"Email"}
,{Id:04,DocumentType:"Photos",Label:"Online Photos"}

,{ other entries}

)
,"Id",SortOrder.Ascending)

In the new versions, the items are ordered by Label, ignoring the SortByColumns.
