Select(Parent) outside gallery

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 566

I have a gallery named "galListData".

 

I can select with a button inside my gallery the current item on the screen with Select(Parent).

I need to select this item also outside gallery but i did not managed. i also added the navigation buttons on my gallery. When i click on these buttons it goes to the next or previous image of my gallery but it does not select the parent automatically.

Please help me.

    @Sormick ,

     

    If you are trying to access the selected record in other screes, instead of using Select(Parent); Use global variable like:

    Set(gVarGalSelected, ThisItem);

     

    Wherever you want to show or use the data of selected records use gVarGalSelected.[YourColumnName].

    Thanks. I'm sorry, i'm a newbie.

    What do you mean with "[YourColumnName]." on "gVarGalSelected.[YourColumnName]" ?

    @Sormick ,

     

    for example, in my case, my column name is Full Name, so I write the expression like:

    gVarGalSelected.'Full Name'
