Hello community:I read this post:https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/app-startscreen-a-new-declarative-alternative-to-navigate-in-app-onstart/But I need to understand better with functions StartScreen accept and why, and why is better...
Thanks
@Gorilla_8 ,
It is not better for a lot of things as far as some users are concerned and unless a major flaw is addressed will break a lot of deep-linking functions where variables or other rules are set in App OnStart (I have a couple in my apps).
It is simply separating the Navigation elements from the OnStart but needs (in my humble opinion) to allow an option to run OnStart before navigation and allow elements such are Global Variables set in OnStart to determine the navigation rules.
@WarrenBelz
I agree, and I assume that StartScreen is too new to enjoy much of it yet, correct?
I would not use the word "enjoy" . . . I am awaiting the "workaround" promised and in the meantime turning on the "retired" area switch so everything still works.
Thank tou for the time and share your knowledge.
Let's see if anyone has another opinion about this.
