Posted on by IC

Hi I can able to control DataCards by audience/user on visible parameter its means when the user is not part of these syntax,

If(OR(User().Email="test.user@contosso.com", User().Email="test.user1@contosso.com" ),true,(IF(OR(User().Email="test.user2@contosso.com", User().Email="test.user3@contosso.com"), true,IF(User().Email="test.user4@contosso.com", true,false))))

then the user will not able to see this DataCard. And it works fine. now the problem is how to control the DataCards lock and unlock or the DisplayMode.disable by audience/user. Thanks!

Regards,

Ian

Hi @IC,

There is no way to manage the Lock and Unlock through formulas.

If one DataCard has been unLocked, then this DataCard need to be deleted and then select again from the fields list to have the Lock status back on it.

You may take a look at the following article for more details:

Card controls in PowerApps

Further, for the DisplayMode property, please check:

"

DisplayMode – Values can be Edit, View, or Disabled. Configures whether the control allows user input (Edit), only displays data (View) or is disabled (Disabled). In View mode, input controls such as Text input, Drop down, Date Picker will only display the text value and will not render any interactive elements or decorations. This makes them suitable to be displayed in Forms or as readable output.

"

For more details, please see:

Core properties in PowerApps

For the formulas, you may just switch the 'true', 'false' value to

DisplayMode.View,

DisplayMode.Edit

or

DisplayMode.Disabled

Regards,

Michael

I do not understand why it is not allowed to put the editforn in view mode as it is designed and that when you put the form in view mode it shows the ugly diplayform that is imposible to pretify, even insert lines/icons/images into cards is impossible, and modifying fonts and colors and position is a time spent problem when you have to do it on 50 fileds cards.
The gallery is very good but the datacard model is really dispaonting in terms of possible customisation, the app is received by user then as very amateur work.
It should be possible to define new model/templates for datacards as it is for Gallery.
Best regards
