Changing button fill when pressed on iPad

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

I am having troubles with a button that I can't get to change color/fill when pressed on iPad. It works well when I preview the app in browser while using mouse but wont happen on iPad. Any ideas what I could do to make it work?

 

Thanks in advance.

    Use variables to do it

     

    Screen - OnVisible=UpdateContext({Button1:true, Button2:false})

     

    Then on Button 1

     * OnSelect =UpdateContext({Button1:true, Button2:false})

    * DisplayMode = If(Button1,Disabled,Edit)

     

    On Button 2

    * OnSelect = UpdateContext({Button1:false, Button2:true})

    * DisplayMode = If(Button2,Disabled,Edit)

     

    You can set the Disabled Fill and Color for each of the buttons to whatever you want and you can do this with as many  buttons you want, I just did this example for two.

    Hi @MayaD,

    How do you change the Fill color of the Button within your app?

    Have you solved your problem?

    I have made a test on my side, please take a try with the following workaround:

    Set the OnSelect property of the Button control to following:

    Set(IsClicked,!IsClicked)

    Set the Fill property of the Button control to following:

    If(IsClicked,RGBA( 255, 20, 147, 1 ),RGBA(56, 96, 178, 1))

    Please take a try with above solution, check if your issue is solved.

     

    Best regards,

    Kris

    That is one option but it (in my opinion) works better the way I put above where instead having to put the if statement on your fill you just change the button properties off the variable. 

     

    I have done both and just find this way to be easier and cleaner...but everybody has their own style and way of doing things. I like this option because I prefer being able to click on the colors so I can see what I like better instead of having to type them out in the if statement. But is basically has the same outcome either way.
