Can't find the data menu

Posted on by 3

Hi guys, very much a newbie to power apps and am really hoping someone can help me out. As I was creating this gallery app, I was able to get an extra menu, next to the main right hand menu (where the red arrow points in screenshot) that gave me options of selecting data from my list to display, without having to write a formula. Once selected, Power Apps auto wrote the formula and put in the appropriate data.

 

Problem is, as I continued editing, the menu went away and I have been unable to get it back. Google searching has yielded no results and even when I try copying the formula and changing the field to pull data from, I get an error "This formula uses scope, which is not presently supported for evaluation'.

 

Long story short, I just need to get the data selection menu back and I'm hoping someone knows what I'm referring too and can give me directions 🙂
