Button inside nested gallery isn't working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 9

I've created a button that executes a Notify action OnSelect. I placed a copy inside a gallery and it works. I placed a second copy inside a nested gallery, and nothing happens. The button is at the top of all the elements inside the gallery. When I click it, I see an outline form on the button, but the OnSelect Notify action doesn't fire. The checkbox inside the nested gallery isn't working either.

 

What should I do to resolve this?

    Possibly a silly  questions, but did you double check that it pasted inside the gallery instead of on the screen but looks like it is inside the gallery?

    Yes, but good question.

     

    I'm about to duplicate the screen and strip everything out of it except for the nested gallery. I'm guessing that some other element is interfering.

    Yeah, that would be my next step as well. Also, double check where the button is positioned layer wise compared to everything else on the screen. I would assume it isn't behind anything keeping it from executing since you can see the outline from the button being pressed though. Sorry I couldn't really help.

    I put the button and checkbox at the top layer. I'll keep on experimenting until I figure it out. Thanks for your help!

    I had this same problem. Turns out my nested gallery's DisplayMode was set to View. I changed it to DisplayMode.Edit and it solved the problem for me.
