Best approach for showing item status in a checklist type of format

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

If I wanted to make some kind of tracking system where a certain list of tasks need to be completed before an item is considered approved, by tracking these items within an entity as true/false values, what's the best way I can show them using icons? I want to use the icons for the 'X' and checkmark to show next to each task to indicate whether or not that task is complete.

 

If the task is 'false', I want to show the X, if true, show the green checkmark.

 

What's the best approach for that?

    Add an Icon control and then you dynamically set the icon that is using.
    For practice, add a Check and a Cancel icon and see how they're both icon controls, with a specific icon set. Pick the ones you want and make a note of their names.
    Then, in your gallery, add a single icon. Set the icon property on it dynamically, such as If(This item.Boolean, Icon.Check, Icon.Cancel)

    How do you set it depending on the value of a datacard on a form using an If statement?

    You can use:
    If(Datacardvalue.Text=true,Image1,Image2) on the Image in your Gallery or wherever located.

    It is still highlighting the ".Text" and saying "Name isn't valid. This identifier isn't recognized."

    Please select the Datacardvalue30 and take a screen shot. What to know the type of control. Is it a dropdown or Text box?

    If Dropdown:
    Datacardvalue30.Selected.Value="No"

     

    If a toggle button:

    Datacardvalue3.Value=true
