Deleting collection row in gallery after popup validation

Happy friday everyone!

I have trouble deleting a selected record in collection in a gallery browser after popup validation window.

I have carefully followed the guide from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaDEVOgOlYY and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjKmL0v6GlI, but neither seems to work.

It seems like the only way for me to delete a record in my collection in a gallery is through this syntax

Remove(collection, ThisItem)

I have tried this one, but it does not the delete the record...:

Remove(collection,Gallery.Selected)

However if I want to use a Popup validation window, i need to use "Remove(collection, gallery.selected) to delete the selected record. But this syntax does not delete the row for me.

Remove(Collection, gallery.Selected);UpdateContext({varShowPopup:false});Back()

Can anyone help me with deleting a record in a collection after a popup validation window?

The reason it’s not working is because when you click the garbage can icon the record underneath is not selected. Selecting in a gallery is the result of triggering the gallery’s OnSelect property. Here you are triggering OnSelect of the icon.

We can try a different approach. Include this code in the OnSelect property of your garbage icon.

Set(recordDeleteID,ThisItem);

Then put this code in the pop up confirmation OK button OnSelect property.

Remove(collection, recordDeleteID);
