Making a Gallery the Default when Screen Opened

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi, 

 

I have 2 screens.

On Screen 1 I press a button to get to Screen 2.

Screen 2 contains multiple galleries that are made visible when clicking on the appropriate buttons within this screen. However, everytime someone goes into Screen 2, I want one of the galleries (Gallery_Main) to be the default visible gallery, so this gallery is visible and the others stay hidden when Screen 2 is opened. At the moment, if I am on any of the galleries in Screen 2, and then I leave that screen to go back to homescreen, when I click back into Screen 2 it shows the same gallery I was on before. I don't want this, I want the default to be Gallery_Main.

 

Any help is much appreciated.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    We can set a variable which controls the visibility of the gallery.

    Hi @v-xiaochen-msft ,

     

    Currently, the visibility of my galleries are set to themselves. As the Blue Buttons control their visibility using UpdateContext. 

    So, if I have already have this in the visibility field, how can I also also use the variable to make sure it opens as default?

    Thanks
