Hi,
I have a Form with a Dropdown box. I want to change the value shown in the Dropdown Box in the Form from "A" to "B" by selecting a button. What do I need to set and where?
Many Thanks!
Mmm - it didn't work 😞 I don't get an error but nothing happens) Here is what I have done:
Ok, try changing the Default property of Dropdown1 to or leave the formula bar empty:
Share
Report
All responses (
Answers (
5,358Parent.Default // or emptyAnd then the DataCard1.Default of the Dropdown1:
dropDownValue
In my case I added this in my button to update the variable as a record for the dropdown:
// OnVisible property of the screen
UpdateContext({
dropDownValue: {Value: "A"}
});
// Button OnSelect
UpdateContext({
dropDownValue: {Value: "B"}
})
If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know. Have a great day! 😊

Thanks! That worked if I moved the dropdown out of the Form (connected to a SharePoint List) but I got an error on the Dropdown box when it was in the form and tried to change the default property
Use the UpdateContext() function to set a variable that will store the new value of the dropdown box.
On the OnVisible property of the screen that contains the form:
UpdateContext({dropDownValue: "A"})Default property of Dropdown1:
dropDownValueOnSelect property of Button1:
UpdateContext({dropDownValue: "B"})When you open the form, the dropdown box will show "A". When you click the button, the dropdown box will change to show "B".
