Posted on by amrhleee

Hi All,

Absolute beginner here. I am trying to save the details filled on the screen that contained the add picture control. However, when i go to another item in the list i want to reset the entire screen, so that i can fill in a new information. For now, I only know that you can do that to a form. Not sure how can i do that to entire screen?

I've attached the layout of my library here. Screenshot 2024-06-04 112318.png Screenshot 2024-06-04 112444.png

Hi , @amrhleee

The Reset() function can only reset the control in Power Apps.

Reset function - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn

If you want to reset the whole screen, you can reset all the controls in your screen.

All Controls - Reset :

varReset

Then you can use this expression to reset all the controls in your screen:

Set(varReset,false);Set(varReset,true)

hi @amrhleee ,
if you are using form then use SubmitForm(formName) or if you want to use a patch to update the value you can use something like this:

Patch(datasourceName,LookUp(datasourceName,ID=''),{you field names: value name})

to reset form try ResetForm(formName)
try this and let me know if you need more help.

Hi @anandm08, I am sorry, I am not familiar with the patch function.

Is there any other way that I can do in order for me to reset the photo and the text input so that it will not retains throughout the entire list?

Yes, because i want to add different text and photo for different category on the list given. However, when I added the text and photo for one category, it retains throughout the entire list.

if you want to reset the image control use can use something like this formula:

Reset(AddMediaButton1)

and for text input:

Reset(textInput.Text)

just replace the name inside reset to the control you want to reset
place this formula on button onSelect property

If you want to save information first and then reset the control, simply put the Reset formula at the bottom of your code where you submit the data.
