Hi
Can i set somehow the variable on items property in a gallery on combobox control?
My goal is to test if this improves gallery performance because on combobox the items is set to Choices(Components.'TaskDescription') where in the backend dataverse this column is a lookup to other table. I have noticed that on gallery refresh after patching or scrooling it makes a lot of requests back to datasource to my lookup columns and i am guessing it might have negative influence to app performance as it is now very slow with only 62 gallery items. Scrooling slow, and after patch gallery makes refresh probably by it's default behaviour and it also takes long.

You can create a collection in the OnVisible property of the screen and use that as the Items property of a galley or combobox. It will be lightning fast.

Ok but how to add this collection column to combobox item? if i add like choices(collectionname.Columnname) it gives me error
@Drrickryp ok i found how to do that but i see it does not solve my gallery issues. I used monitor and the patch copy delete takes like 80ms but i think somehow the gallery renderring after these actions take the most time. IF i have few items in gallery all is ok if like now 62 and i need to scroll - even scrolling is a pain. It is lagging for the rows to reappear
