Hi All
I have a custom datacard with a 20+ checkboxes. I have a ClearCollect() for each checkboxes OnCheck and UnCheck property. to bring those 20+ items into a collection.
What i now want to do, is in a dropdown (or textbox) to return the values of the selected checkbox items.
The DataCard Update property is : CollectionName
Dropdown
Items : CollectionName
DefaultSelectedItems: CollectionName
SelectMultiple: true
do i need to change the items for the Dropdown? if so, what should it be to update and show results as i check and uncheck the boxes?
Hi @KristyH ,
Do you want the results to be populated into the Drop Down by default? If you use Drop Down, this has a limitation: you can't populate multiple options, so I suggest you change Drop Down to a Combo Box and set it up like this:
Share
Report
All responses (
Answers (
Items:StartegySelection
DefaultSelectedItems:Filter(StartegySelection,value=true)

Thanks for that, i have double checked the code. i believe the problem was i had Value and not value in the last filter.
the drop down now populates with the multiple selections., if i click the drop down. however, it does not show the multiple selections upon closing the dropdown. i don't need it to be a dropdown box, i just want to see in Option1, Option2, Option 3 format in a text when i select or deselect the checkboxes
Hi @KristyH ,
Please try this:
Steps in my test.
1)Check Box and DropDown:
2)Code on the OnSelect of each Check Box:
ClearCollect(yy,{check:Checkbox1.Text,status:Checkbox1.Value},{check:Checkbox2.Text,status:Checkbox2.Value},{check:Checkbox3.Text,status:Checkbox3.Value}
);
ClearCollect(yy,Filter(yy,status=true)
)
Since our settings have different names, I've changed the name to yours.
ClearCollect(StartegySelection,
{checkbox:Chk_Strategy1.Text,value:Chk_Strategy1.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy2.Text,value:Chk_Strategy2.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy3.Text,value:Chk_Strategy3.Value},
{checkbox:Chk_Strategy4.Text,value:Chk_Strategy4.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy5.Text,value:Chk_Strategy5.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy6.Text,value:Chk_Strategy6.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy7.Text,value:Chk_Strategy7.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy8.Text,value:Chk_Strategy8.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy9.Text,value:Chk_Strategy9.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy10.Text,value:Chk_Strategy10.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy11.Text,value:Chk_Strategy11.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy12.Text,value:Chk_Strategy12.Value},
{checkbox:Chk_Strategy13.Text,value:Chk_Strategy13.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy14.Text,value:Chk_Strategy14.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy15.Text,value:Chk_Strategy15.Value},
{checkbox:Chk_Strategy16.Text,value:Chk_Strategy16.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy17.Text,value:Chk_Strategy17.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy18.Text,value:Chk_Strategy18.Value},
{checkbox:Chk_Strategy19.Text,value:Chk_Strategy19.Value},{checkbox:Chk_Strategy20.Text,value:Chk_Strategy20.Value}
);
ClearCollect(StartegySelection,Filter(StartegySelection,value=true)
)3)The Items of my Dropdown:
The Items of your Dropdown:
StartegySelectionPlease check if your above steps are correct.
The result of my test:
When I select the Chech Box1:
When I select the Chech Box1 and Check Box2:
If your setup is like mine, I recommend you first try setting up three checkboxes, run them and check the data in the collection.

Hi @KristyH ,
Of course, you need to clear your original OnCheck and OnUncheck settings, otherwise you will be performing different operations on the collection with the same name.

Hi @KristyH ,
Do you mean that when you run the app, after selecting the checkbox, the value in the dropdown list is not updated? In my tests everything works fine, I suggest you use the code I provided earlier and clear your original settings.
If there are errors, I hope you can provide some screenshots of the errors.
Best regards,
