Posted on by gemidriver 30

i am making my first power app

2 screens, 1st screen has some buttons 

on selecting a button, it navigates to 2nd screen, and there is a data lable - i want to populate the label with the text of the button i chose

seems simple, but also hard to search

    Hello,

    So what you can do is assign a variable when you click on the button in the first screen so the onselect property of your button should be :

    Set(_labelValue,Self.Text);Navigate(YOUR_SCREEN_NAME)

    And the Text property of your label should be:

    _labelValue

     

    Best regards,

    Alaa
