What i would like to do is show a button if the using is adding a record, if it is not hide the button. Do you have any ideas how i can do an if state to check that status and then hide a button based on that status. Thanks
What do you mean by "if the using is adding a record"?
In any case you can set statuses with the UpdateContext command such as UpdateContext({UserAdding: true})
Then you can set the visibility of the button (its Visible property) to = UserAdding
That will work.
PS You can also leave the button visible but set Disabled to = !UserAdding
The Form control has a "Mode" property, which tells you whether the form is in Edit mode, or New mode.
You can set your button's Visible (or Disabled) accordingly. For example:
Form1.Mode = FormMode.Edit
Hope this helps 🙂
Yes, this helps. I will try it. Thank You for your quick response.
By the way. I tried it and it works perfectly. Again Thanks.
Hi there
What if I want the button to be visible when Form1Mode = FormMode.Edit & when FormMode.New? It gives me an error when I try to combine the two formulas
Thanks for the answer @Abdou,I had a similar requirement in one of my application so I used the above syntax and it worked for me(In the image attached: IssueFirmTracker - is the form name)Syntax: Form_Name.Mode = Form.EditPlease like my response if it helped.
Try hiding it in 'view' mode, then it'll be visible in the other two; so in the 'Visible' setting:
If(Form1.Mode = FormMode.View, false, true)
