Posted on by jNelly

I currently have an Icon in a gallery and a button outside of the gallery and I want the button to change the color of the icon when pressed.

I also only want the item selected in the gallery's Icon to change colors.

Any ideas?

Okay so that changed the color of the icon to red which is good but I want the items icon that was selected when the button was pushed to stay red.

Because now when I click on another item it automatically changes its color to red before I push the button and the old item I had selected when I pushed the button changes back to blue.

If it helps I could update a column from my data source named status by the push of the button to change the color for the selected item I just need help doing that.

Hi @jNelly,

Do you want to make the icon of the selected item change colour when you click a button outside the Gallery?

If you could accept adding a column like Status to make difference, that's would be easier to achieve your need.

1). Add a Text column to your list

2). Once you select an item from the Gallery, click the button to update the corresponding status as Color. Set the Onselect property of the button outside the gallery as below:

Patch(ListName,Gallery9.Selected,{Status:"Color"})

3). Make the Fill property of the icon as below:

If(ThisItem.Status="Color",Red)
