I have a custom list form. User wants a "pop up" with instructions to be visible by default until button is pressed to hide. I've looked all over but I can't seem to find or understand how to accomplish this. I'm uncertain how or where to set the variable. Everything I find is assuming you want to press a button to reveal a pop up. I want the opposite.

So I have a group. Visible set to true. In that group there is a button. I want the group to be visible = false onselect of that button. Is this possible?

Re: Group Visibility, change OnSelect

Hello,

Your have to revert the logic 😁

Create your popup dialog box in a group, or, better, in a container.

Add a close/dismiss button with in his .OnSelect :

UpdateContext({ ctxDismissPopup: true })

Then, set the .Visible of your group / container to

!ctxDismissPopup

or Not(ctxDismissPopup) that's the same

By default, your context variable will be blank, the popup will remain visible until the variable is updated to true

If you need to show the popup again, you'll have to update ctxDismissPopup to false or Blank() in another event, (example in the .OnHidden or .OnVisible event of the screen, will make the popup visible each time the screen is reloaded)
