Scrolling EditForm

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 119

Hi there,

i  have a very large editform that gets it data from SharePoint list.

I am just wandering if there is an way of having some nice buttons on the side which will automatically scroll to the correct place on the form according to what buttn the user presses. So for example they want to enter some financial information about a customer they will click on the financial button and the editform will autmatically scroll to that section. Has anyone done this ?

    Hi @Jason_Hough,

     

    This cannot be achieved in PowerApps so far. I saw an idea that might do the similar thing, please consider to vote on it:

    I was looking for an answer to this too, but the best I've been able to come up with is to create buttons that correspond to the section headings you wish to navigate to, then use the OnSelect function to UpdateContext with that Heading Title. i.e.

    UpdateContext({FormSection:"Financial"})

    From there update Visible parameter of the form fields to only make those particular fields visible if the applicable context matches. i.e.

    If(FormSection="Financial", true, false)

    This essentially hides all other fields and makes the form much shorter. 

    A benefit to this approach is that you can also set the color of form to be different with each "section", giving the form the appearance of having different pages.
