Posted on by jayBEEph

Assuming my gallery item is:

Sort(Filter(spTagLearners, sp_teacherID = varSelectedID), tagLearnerID)

I have 4 text inputs - txtA, txtB, txtC, txtD

If my yes/no column A has a value of yes how can I disable txtA? and same goes to values of other columns to other text inputs?

any suggestions? thanks in advance

Hi @jayBEEph ,

Assuming you mean this is a Text column with values of "Yes" and "No", the DisplayMode of the Text control would be (if this was a Boolean column, you would not be using a Text control)

If( Self.Text = "Yes", DisplayMode.Disabled, DisplayMode.Edit )

@jayBEEph ,

So how are you using a Text control to display it, or is this a separate field in that control ? If so

If( ThisItem.ColumnA, DisplayMode.Disabled, DisplayMode.Edit )

Pardon my English, I will just rephrase it maybe I was not able to express it correctly.

My SharePoint list has Yes/No columns called A, B, C, D

Let's say my gallery list is Sort(Filter(spTagLearners, sp_teacherID = varSelectedID), tagLearnerID)
The gallery contains 4 text inputs txtA, txtB and so on, there aren't any checkboxes to display values from columns A,B,C,D
What I want to achieve is:

every time the gallery is loaded the text inputs will either be displayed in edit or disabled based on the values in the columns A, B, C, D depending on each rows values. So If chkA is Yes then txtA is disabled.

That is what I assumed in my last post, so on the TextA control DisplayMode.

If( ThisItem.chkA, DisplayMode.Disabled, DisplayMode.Edit )

yes, this works but it disables all txtA, it does not disable a specific row where chkA is YES

@jayBEEph ,

That is exactly what it should do - if the chkA field in the record is true, it will disable the txtA control in the gallery row containing that record.
