Creating a Summary Page with all the items that have been added to a gallery

Hi all!

I have an app and I collect information into a Gallery - users fill in control fields (date picker, text, numbers) and the information is collated in the gallery. I want to, when the 'Next' button is pressed, to allow users to then review all the information (including some other info that has been entered that is not in the gallery) in a Summary Screen. I have managed to get the 'other info' to transfer to the Summary Screen using variables - that is fine, I just can't seem to get the gallery info to transfer. They fill out the fields on the left and then press 'add' and each time add is pressed it adds another record to the gallery. I just want the gallery as shown in the bottom image to look exactly the same on the Summary screen. I have tried a few approaches (having a finalise button, creating a collection) but it never seems to transfer. I am not sure if it is the way it is set up.

Hello @B33bop!

Please try below steps and let me know how it goes.

Create a Collection: Store the gallery items in a collection when they are added. Use Collect(CollectionName, GalleryName.AllItems) to save all gallery items.

Navigate to the Summary Screen: Use the Navigate function to move to the summary screen when the 'Next' button is pressed.

Display the Collection: On the summary screen, add another gallery and set its Items property to the collection created in step 1.

Example:
Collect(SummaryCollection, GalleryName.AllItems); Navigate(SummaryScreen);

On the SummaryScreen, set the gallery's Items property to SummaryCollection.

Hiya Sammy, Unfortunately, I had already tried this particular approach. I did do some more digging into my code and realised the problem was actually the repository type on the Summary Page. I was trying to use a gallery when actually the data being put into the collection was being added to a table. I changed the gallery to a Data Table and hey presto it worked. Thanks for answering though - it made me go back and start it from scratch in order to see where I had gone wrong. If it had been a simpler Gallery then the above solution would have worked, I believe - it was as I thought, the way I had set it up *sigh* I always make thing more complex for myself.🤣
