Disable textInput field when using checkbox inside a gallery

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Kadd 475

Hi all,

 

I'm sure my question is very basic but i admit i'm a bit stuck...

 

I have a gallery, each line has a checkbox and a text field.

I'd like to have the textfield corresponding to the checkbox switching fro; edit to disable mode when i tick the box.

 

I set the OnSelect property of the checkbox like this : UpdateContext({varLocCheck:!varLocCheck})

and the  DisplayMode of my Text field like this : If(varLocCheck,Edit,Disabled)

 

The problem is whenever i check or uncheck 1 of the boxes, all the text fields get disbaled/enabled.

 

Is there a way to disbale/enable only the text field related to the box that is checked ?

 

Thanks a lot for your help ! 🙂

    Hi,

    Following are the steps,

    • Step1: Add a checkbox in the gallery lets say id is "CheckBox"
    • Step2: Add a text box in the gallery let say id is "TextBox", add the formula If(Checkbox.Value, DisplayMode.View, DisplayMode.Edit) on "DisplayMode" property.
