PROBLEM with a text input field from SharePoint with a combo box in PowerApp

(0) ShareShare

EDITED: I think my problem was the combobox with value from another SP list unable to retain its value when edit the form. 

 

As the subject explain, I customized combo box to tie up with an SharePoint text column. Everything works fine follow the other post. > Re: Can I replace a text input field from SharePoi... - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)

 

However, whenever I edit my form, I wasn't able to resubmit - Power Apps detected that my Title field is blank. As such, I need to reselect from the combobox list to populate the Title field with a value (even though it already has value).

Any ideas how to resolve this?

    You need to change the logic for the error message from IsBlank to now IsEmpty.

    Hey Phip, that was the default error message - with property Parent.Error. May I know which property you refer to?

    Rather than parent.error. If(IsEmpty(Comboxname.selecteditems), true, false)

    I'm on a mission to eliminate unnecessary If() functions.

    IsEmpty(Comboxname.SelectedItems) reduces to either true or false without the If().
