Enable Column Header Scrolling Within Horizontal Container

Posted on by AC-16041448-0

In Microsoft PowerApps, I have a gallery inside of a horizontal container so users can scroll horizontally to the right to see all of the columns. I now need to label each column of the gallery. How do I ensure that the column labels or headers, will scroll along with the gallery? I was planning to use Text Labels for each column header, as illustrated per screenshot below, but it does not scroll. I cannot add the header directly to the gallery as it considers it another field. Is there a way to "anchor" each column header to its' column so it scrolls as well?

Below screenshot also shows that I left some space at the top of my horizontal container to accommodate the column header labels. Thank you!

HI @AC-16041448-0

It can depend on what you are willing to do. You can use labels in a container, that you set the X value based on the gallery positions of columns making sure the columns and headers are the same width, then as you scroll the X position of the columns move, if you bind your x value for your headers to the X of the Columns as one moves the other moves... but only side to side

Ok, I posted my question too soon :) ==>> I added another horizontal container to accommodate the header rows and added my text labels there. I placed this inside of my main horizontal container in the space I had allocated already right above my gallery. I then set the 'X' property for the header container to the same as the Gallery (ie. GalleryName.X). To align the spacing, I made sure each text label width was same length as the gallery field length and then used property 'LayoutGap' to ensure same spacing between each column. A bit tedious to ensure my gallery fields were spaced appropriately, but my scroll is working with all of the columns aligned!
