DataCard visibility

Posted on by MartinSejak 54

Hello community,

I have a gallery collection, where user collects items from drop down menu.

After clicking on collected item in the gallery, using button (Set(varDept,ThisItem.DepartmentCode_description) ) , the item is editable in Edit form.

If the Gallery Collection is empty (no selected items from dropdown) , the EditForm and its DataCard does not show on the screen.

Is it possible, that the EditForm (DataCard) will be visible at all times? 

I have Visible property of DataCard set to true, so I was expecting this behavior, but this is not happening.

Thank you for any advise.

Have a nice day 🙂

Martin

    @MartinSejak EditForm has 3 modes. New, Edit, and View. In the Edit and View modes, the Form and all the data cards will appear only if there is an Item to show. If you want a Blank Form change the mode to New.

    Hope this helps!
