Hi,

I have created a dropdown as a part of a gallery view that changes color based on the value that is selected. However, I don't want the whole list to be in that color when I open the dropdown, only when it is "collapsed". Which propery do I have to change so that all the dropdown items stay white, and not change to the same color as the selected value? See attached screenshots with examples.

Formula in the "Fill" property:
If(
Dropdown6.Selected.Value = "Ikke startet", Color.Red,
Dropdown6.Selected.Value = "Ligger bak", Color.Orange,
Dropdown6.Selected.Value = "I rute", RGBA(144, 238, 144, 1), // Light green
Dropdown6.Selected.Value = "Fullført", Color.DarkGreen,
Color.White // Default color
)

Thanks!

Hi @asaetrang

To change the background color of the dropdown options in PowerApps, you can use the "SelectionFill" property. This property allows you to set the background color of the selected item in the dropdown without affecting the color of the entire list. By using the "SelectionFill" property, you can ensure that only the selected item is displayed in the specified color, while the rest of the dropdown options remain unaffected.

SelectionFill: 

If( Dropdown1.Selected.Value = "Option 1", Color.Red, 
Dropdown1.Selected.Value = "Option 2", Color.Orange, 
Color.White // Default color 
)

Thanks!
