Hi Everyone

This is the app on which I'm working:

 

PowerApps.png

 

So I used this app to gather the ressource needed of my team

But to win some time. I'd like to add a button copy, if I select something in my datable (on the left) and then I click on the copy button, the values will be added in my fields (on the right)

And I have another question, would it be possible in my datatable to replace billable False/True by No/yes ?

 

Any idea of how could I do that?For the first one, I tought about the function Button.pressed; but it"s not existing anymore

 

Many thanks for your help

    for the true/false field, you can change the label or text box's .Text property to this:

     

     

    If(BillableColumnName=true, "Yes","No")

     

     

    here's one way you could implement the copy button you described:

     

    add your "copy" button and set its .OnSelect property to this:

     

     

    UpdateContext({copy:1})

     

     

     

    add the following to:

    • your gallery's .OnSelect property, if you want the copied values to clear each time you select a new record
    • your "clear" button for the form
    • your "submit" button for the form, at the very end

     

    UpdateContext({copy:0})

     

     

    change the .Default property of every data input field in your form to this (add in your control/data names and remove brackets):

     

     

    If(copy=1,[YourGalleryName].Selected.[NameOfDataColumn],Parent.Default)

     

     

     

     

    if you want to show which record in the gallery is currently selected, you can use conditional formatting like this:

     

    .Fill or .Color on some or all labels in the gallery:

     

    If([YourGalleryName].Selected.ID =ThisItem.ID,["Selected" color],[Normal color])

    or

     

    .Visible on some kind of indicator icon:

     

    If([YourGalleryName].Selected.ID =ThisItem.ID,true,false)

    Concerning the color; you have SelectedFill and SelectedColor propreties

    But I'm not able to change my true/false to Yes/no, I don't have text proprtey
