Hi Community people 🙂

I have date picker where I have set the border colour to change and a label to be visible when a date is selected in the past, however this highlights and shows when the value within the card is blank.

The border code I have is If(DataCardValue24.SelectedDate < DatePickerToday.SelectedDate, Color.Red, RGBA(101, 128, 187, 1))

I don't want the card value to be set as default today, therefore my ideal solution would be if DataCardValue24 is blank() set the border to RGBA(166,166,166,1).

Can anyone suggest how to add this to the above code?

You can nest If statements, so the app processes them in logical order. Yours would check for a blank value first, then process it once it has a value. Something like:

If(
IsBlank(DataCardValue24.SelectedDate),
RGBA(166, 166, 166, 0),
DataCardValue24.SelectedDate < DatePickerToday.SelectedDate,
Color.Red,
RGBA(101, 128, 187, 1)
)

This is now basically structured as If, ElseIf, Else

@GarethPrisk

Thanks Gareth this works, if I want to add an additional if condition say DataCardValue41.SelectedDate = DatePickerToday2.SelectedDate, can this be incorporated?

Sure! Just add it to the If statement in the logical location. These are typically written as If( X , true , false ), but does support multiple Ifs as we outlined in the previous post

If (
X,
True (X)
Y,
True (Y),
Z,
True (Z),
False (X,Y,Z)
)
