Adding Unique Images to a Gallery of checkboxes

Posted on by UniDeen22

Hi All,

I'm trying to make a Canvas app imitating a work permits form. In the form their are safety warning picture that I'd like to include to my form also. In the Image below you can see I have made a Multi select checkbox with different safety hazards that I've linked to a SharePoint.

I would like the warning images to be Unique for each hazard instead of repeating. Is there a way of doing this ?

Also I'm very new to PowerApps so if there's any resources or suggestion in helping me with my design I'd appreciate it.

ah makes a lot of sense now, you will have to go with option nr 2 then and instead of id in the if you have to use the name of the option e.g.

if(ThisItem.Value = "manual Handling", manualhandling, ThisItem.Value = "hot surfaces", hotsurfaces) etc.

that will be your image property.

make sure to upload all the icons and check the names.

Hi Seb,

Thank you, I appreciate your swift help. However I'm not sure I understand you properly. Because if I were to add an the splist, it would be one image to a record in the list, where as the "what hazards could i face" is a choice data type in my splist, how would I get these Individual images to appear along side their respective hazards.

I've included a ss of my splist.

gotcha, in that case the simplest way of accomplishing this would be adding those images to the sharepoint list itself, that way if the image changes for any reason you just edit the record and upload new image. To display the icon, in the image property you have to put the correct column name where you store the images.

you can also call upload all the images to the app and call them according to the ID of the record from the splist e.g. put this in your image property: if(thisitem.id =1, 'manualhandling', thisitem.id=2, 'hotsurfaces') etc.

manualhandling and hotsurfaces would be your uploaded images of course.

this options is a little more clunky in my opinion though and I would go with the former.
