Struggling with Radio Buttons in Power Apps – Unable to Select Any Option

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Hi Power Apps Developers,

I’m facing an issue with radio button controls in my Power Apps project, and I’m hoping for some advice. I have four radio buttons (Radio1, Radio2, Radio3, Radio4) in a form that are supposed to allow users to select different criteria. This criteria should store than an evaluation criteria. This criteria needs to be stored temporarliy to sum it up after a cluster of questions is answered. However, none of the radio buttons work—they don't allow any selection, and this issue exists even before I apply any reset functionality.

Here’s the key formula I’m using in the OnSelect property:

 
UpdateContext({
    SelectedCriteria: Radio1.Selected.Value;
    EvaluationValue: Switch(
        Radio1.Selected.Value;
        ThisItem.'Criteria 1' & " (0%)"; ThisItem.'Criteria 1';
        ThisItem.'Criteria 2' & " (25%)"; ThisItem.'Criteria 2';
        ThisItem.'Criteria 3' & " (50%)"; ThisItem.'Criteria 3';
        ThisItem.'Criteria 4' & " (100%)"; ThisItem.'Criteria 4'
    )
})

Reset(Radio2);
Reset(Radio3);
Reset(Radio4);

 

And in the OnChange property:

UpdateContext({
    SelectedCriteria: Radio1.Selected.Value;
    EvaluationValue: Switch(
        Radio1.Selected.Value;
        ThisItem.'Criteria 1' & " (0%)"; ThisItem.'Criteria 1';
        ThisItem.'Criteria 2' & " (25%)"; ThisItem.'Criteria 2';
        ThisItem.'Criteria 3' & " (50%)"; ThisItem.'Criteria 3';
        ThisItem.'Criteria 4' & " (100%)"; ThisItem.'Criteria 4'
    )
})

Reset(Radio2);
Reset(Radio3);
Reset(Radio4);

Despite my efforts—checking data binding, verifying default values, and simplifying the setup—the radio buttons remain unresponsive. The problem is present from the start, before any resets are even triggered.

Seeking Help

Has anyone encountered this issue or have any suggestions? I’m particularly interested in understanding why these controls aren’t working and how to get them functional.

Thanks in advance!

    Hi
     
    Sorry I dont see any forms, I dont see any radio buttons, I don't see the configuration of the form, etc.
     
    Please, when you are building a UI, share pictures of the UI, providing a short Video is even better.
     
    Are you saying they aren't responsive as in you cannot click and they get filled in, or that your code doesn't trigger??? Or at least you dont think it is.
     
    Put some trace statements in and use Monitor to verify if things are triggered.
     
    Please share the UI, the Properties of the Radios, are they grouped together? To what property in the Data are they bound too since its on a form?
    What is the forms Item property and DataSource set to?
