I have Screen1, which has Gallery1 and Dropdown1.

'OnStart' has -

ClearCollect(col_Drop_Job_Picture_Title_Collection,
    {Image_Name: "Cable Footage End"},{Image_Name:"Cable Footage Start"},

    {Image_Name:"Cable Footage Transition"},{Image_Name:"Light Level at NID"},

    {Image_Name:"Light Level at Tap"},{Image_Name:"Map Route"},{Image_Name:"NID Closed"},

    {Image_Name:"NID Open"},{Image_Name:"Pole ID Tag"},{Image_Name:"Riser Guard"},

    {Image_Name:"Other"},{Image_Name:"R/V Agreement (Optional)"});

Gallery1 has Items -

If(AJP_Invoice_Type_Fld.Text = "Drop",["Cable Footage End","Cable Footage Start",

"Cable Footage Transition","Light Level at NID","Light Level at Tap","Map Route",

"NID Closed","NID Open","Pole ID Tag","Riser Guard","Other","R/V Agreement (Optional)"],

Dropdown1 Items has -

If(AJP_Invoice_Type_Fld.Text = "Drop",
  Filter(col_Drop_Job_Picture_Title_Collection,
        Not(
            Image_Name in Drop_Job_Image_Collection.DisplayName
        )
  )

The image 'R/V Agreement (Optional) is not required. As well, 'Other' images are not required, however, the user should
be able to take add as many images with the title 'Other' as necessary.

My formula, which is working correctly, was written to remove a title from the ComboBox list once the title is used.
But I now need the formula to work in a different way - allowing 'Other' to remain available even though previously
used.

Add a second column to the collection. Set the values to "Single" or "Any". If the value of the selected item is Single remove it from the Gallery. If its Any then don't remove it. The item with "Other" as the name would be set to "Any" everything else would be set to Single.

To be clear, to which collection am I adding the column -
Drop_Job_Image_Collection or col_Drop_Job_Picture_Title_Collection?

How is each item assigned the proper content - 'Single' or 'Any', if that has not been previously
clarified in a column of the same in the data source?

If I am reading your code right it would be in the col_Drop_Job_Picture_Title_Collection. Then you would use that value to not add the "other" item to the Drop_Job_Image_Collection.

Something like this -

ClearCollect(col_Drop_Job_Picture_Title_Collection,

{Image_Name: "Cable Footage End", Use_Type: "Single"},
  {Image_Name:"Cable Footage Start", Use_Type: "Single"},
{Image_Name:"Cable Footage Transition", Use_Type: "Single"},
  {Image_Name:"Light Level at NID", Use_Type: "Single"},
  {Image_Name:"R/V Agreement (Optional)"}, Use_Type: "Single"},
  {Image_Name:"Other"}, Use_Type: "Multiple"});

Yes, then add code where you remove the item from the dropdown if they pick it to only remove it if use_type = Single.
