Adding DropDown Values and Colour Text selection

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 136

Hi all,

I am totally new to this and currently creating my first App. I have managed to get reasonably far and just when I thought I was nearing the end... I had 2 more items thrown at me.

 

I am currently adding a dropdown filter within a Gallery. I need to filter each column with the different information that it may have. 

I am trying to create in my Status column. I have different Status' like 'Open, Closed and Pending'. I would like the ability to filter so that if I select open, it only shows the items that are open and so on.

 

I also would like to colour code Open, Closed and Pending depending on which is selected. Ie. for Open, I want Open in Green. Closed in Red and Pending in Amber.

 

Could someone please help me with these?

    I have taken a look at the Colour switch first. I followed your instructions but It has not worked for me. I have included 2 more Screenshots to see if you can tell where I am making the mistakes

    Vijay,

    Could you help me further with the dropdown menu please. I have several columns and ultimately, I want to add dropdowns for a number of them. I cannot even get the Status dropdown to work at the moment
