Dropdown to Select Item in Gallery

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 174

Hi,

 

I have a canvas app with no forms where a user selects an ID in a dropdown and the gallery is filtered, however the gallery is not selecting the items columns in the dropdowns the user uses to input.

 

For example, the green arrows are the currently selected HOLEID and PEGID that are both unique IDs the orange dropdown is showing the state in the dropdown correctly and in the gallery, the blue arrow is showing other data also correctly in the gallery and in the text input (its currently supposed to be blank)

The big purple arrow is used to filter the gallery, however it doesnt select the item and unless i select the gallery it will show nothing in the text input or dropdown for example see the image below.

The code is the following for each

Purple arrow dropdown (dropdown2_2) items code is : Distinct(TEMPExpCollarData, BHID).Result

the orange arrows dropdown default code is Text(CollarSelectGallery_1.Selected.State)

and  orange arrows dropdown items code is [

"",
"ACT",
"NSW",
"WA",
"SA",
"QLD",
"NT",
"VIC",
"TAS"
]

 

the galleries item code is

SortByColumns(
 Search(
 Filter(
 TEMPExpCollarData,
 (
 BHID = Dropdown2_2.Selected.Result && Status <> "TEMP" && Status = ddStatusFilter_3.Selected.Value )
 ),
 TextSearchBox_4.Text,
 "HOLEID"
 ),
 "Created",
 "Ascending" 
)

 

I cant work out why it doesnt show the correct info in the dropdowns and text inputs when i filter the gallery by the dropdown?

 

Could someone help,

 

Cheers

    What is the purple arrow's formula contents for the Default property right now?

    In other words, for Dropdown control dropdown2_2 what is the formula for the Default property right now?

     

    Also, what is the blue arrow's formula contents for the Default property right now?

    purple arrows default is "Select HOLEID" (its a row in the database i use as a place holder so the user selects a hole)

    and blue arrows default is CollarSelectGallery_1.Selected.Pref_RL
