Hi all!

I am trying to make a button in a Gallery only be visible for certain items in SharePoint list. The list has a Choice column called "Status" and I only want the button to appear next to items that state "Sent for Manager Review" .

The code is in the Visible property of the button:

If(ThisItem.Status.Value = "Sent for Manager Review", true,false)

The error is as in the title: This formula uses scope which is not presently supported for evaluation.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi @Pxtavern

Try using this slightly simplified expression in the visible property:

ThisItem.Status.Value = "Sent for Manager Review"

This might also remove that notification. Note, it is not an error, just a notification, which in most cases is harmless. Errors show up as red underlines in the formula bar and with a red x beside the control with the error.

Hope this helps
