Set Y position of a container to the Y position of Item in a Gallery

I am trying to set the Y position of a container to the Y position of an icon within an gallery. The issue is, is that the container needs to change Y position based on the row where the icon is being selected. For example, if there are 5 rows of data and I select the icon for the 3rd row the container would align its Y position to the Y position of that icon. I've tried various methods but this needs to be dynamic as I have sort capabilities on the each column in the gallery.

Thank you

Set Y position of a container to the Y position of Item in a Gallery

That did not work sorry. I may not have explained what I'm doing properly. I have a Horizontal Gallery, withing that gallery, I have a nested vertical gallery. For each item in that gallery is an icon. When I select that Icon, I have a container (that has a couple of galleries contained within), that I want to be visible and show next to the Icon selected. Now the Y may changed depending on which item is selected and I may want it to be slightly different based on the location of the icon to the bottom or side edge of the screen. I've attached an image of my layout with the container visible.

For example, If I select the icon for the first item I want the container Y property to be closer to the icon's Y property and if I select the 2nd item then the Y property is almost where it's currently sitting.

Hi CU06090422-0,

I have tried to recreate this with a button but should work with Container too. I have used the ID column for this.

If I select 1 from the gallery, the Button stays in front of 1:

If I select 3, it goes in front for 3:

Here's the Y value of the Button:

Gallery.Y + Gallery.Selected.Title.Y + If( Gallery.Selected.ID = 1, 0, (Gallery.Selected.ID - 1) * Gallery.TemplateHeight )

Hope this helps you solve your problem.

Kind regards,

Nandit
