Although I have followed the steps and processes outlined in the post answer below, I am not able to receive the Parent default values when I edit the form. I have attached a picture of someone experiencing the same problem, but there has been no response to it. Could someone please assist me? Thank You!

 

How can I connect text input box to slider control?

    I have replied in the other thread that you post. As I mentioned there, this is a case of initialising the variable value. If you post the details of how you've setup your form (specifically how you set the Item property and the formula that you use to select a record), we can better help you on this matter.

    I have a button like this in my Gallery "Edit Request". After that, it navigates to my form.

     

     

    Navigate(LoadingScreen,ScreenTransition.Fade); Set(varItem, ThisItem) ;EditForm(Form1); Navigate(NewIntakeProcessScreen,ScreenTransition.Fade)

     

     

    On the Form Property Item

     

     

    varItem

     

     

     

    Please find attached screenshots of the gallery and my form. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.

    Hi @LPLPowerAppUser 

    Assuming that you followed the procedure in the other thread, you appear to have 6 sets of slider/text input controls. Therefore, there would be 6 'varData' variables that correpond to each pair of slider/textinput controls.

    If Form1 is inside NewIntakeProcessScreen, the syntax you use would look something like this:

    Navigate(LoadingScreen,ScreenTransition.Fade); 
    Set(varItem, ThisItem) ;
    EditForm(Form1); 
    Navigate(NewIntakeProcessScreen,
     ScreenTransition.Fade,
     {
     varData1:ThisItem.EaseOfDoingBusiness,
     varData2:ThisItem.OverallSatisfaction,
     varData3:ThisItem.ClientGrowthNetNewAssets,
     etc.....
     }
    )
