Get selected value from a Collection

Hi!

 

I am trying to develop a drag and drop solution using PowerApps. 

I've managed to upload the following PCF to my canvas: https://github.com/scottdurow/powerapps-pcf-samples/tree/master/CanvasDnD

 

Currently I only have some strings for testing.

For canvasdnd1, OnChange event, I have the following syntax:

Does anybody have a better solution than Last or FirstN in order to get the selected(dropped) value?

I am also using a textbox to check if the dropped value from first canvasdnd matches with the second one.

Right now, its showing in the following order:

Any hint or solution is appreciated!

    This is different use case, I am trying enable it for single container and allow user to drag and drop and change the order of items. But it is resetting everything after drag n drop..it is not working if we want to use for single container and change order...Dropped Id is coming something different randon sequence..

    Hi @rares_ls ,

    Attached is the solution of canvas drag and drop, where I have added the property "dropped name" that shows the selected item from the component.
