Conditioning fields based on specific answers- PoweApps Forms

Hello!

 

I'm currently creating a form in PowerApps but I'm having a couple issues with hiding and showing fields based on specific answers. I have looked multiple videos and read multiple posts about this topic but for some reason keep getting some error messages.

These are the formula I've been using on the field I want to appear and disappear.

This is the card of the field that I want the formula to see and appear if the answer is "Si".

These are the error messages I'm getting on both formulas

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!

    Your if statement is using the wrong field.  You are using the description field, which is a text box not a dropdown.  You want to use the field that is the dropdown in your screenshot.  The first one is correct. The second formula is wrong.

    Selected.value isn't an option for DataCardValue5.

    Use If(DataCardValue5.Text="Si",true,false)

    @sdiaz06 ,

    What is this?

    I don't see that datacard. Could this be the text error?

    Already tried using the "DataCardValue3" and I'm getting the same errors

    Click on the red X and choose Edit in the formula bar and let me see what is there now.

    These are errors for the first data card you were using. Are you still getting them? Is your DataCard visible with "Si" and invisible with "S".

    Yes, those are the same errors I'm getting right now. 

     

    I would say no, that what I want to get, for it to be visible when the answer is "Si"

    I can't recreate those errors.
