Pass value to dropdown on separate page

Posted on by 505

I have a button that links to another page where I want it to fill in a dropdown.

 

So the button would be something like Navigate(Screen1,ScreenTransition.UnCover, {selectedSection: "Session 1" })

 

Then on Screen1 there is a dropdown called Session. I want the value from that button to be passed on to this dropdown which in this case is Session 1.

    Change the code to:
    Navigate(Screen1,ScreenTransition.UnCover); Set(selectedSection,"Session 1" })

     

    Then in the Default of the Dropdown: 
    selectedSection

    Can you show a screen short of the first code.

    Also is "Session 1" part of the values in the items on your dropdown?

    what if the formula on the items property of the dropdown

    It works fine on my test. Hope it not a Combobox?

    It is a dropdown, I will see if I can get away with making it is text field instead. Thanks for the help.
