CountRows not working with container in gallery

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 181

Hi,

 

I have a gallery that has a container within the template. Within the container is a checkbox.

I am trying to count the rows that are checked. For some reason the CountRows function does not work as expected when using the container. If there are 5 rows in the gallery and none are checked then CountRows shows 0, but even if only 1 checkbox is checked then CountRows returns 5. Removing the checkbox from the container lets CountRows work properly again. 

 

is this a bug or am i missing something?

    @asafweis - it is not possible to access controls inside a container. Removing the Checkbox from the container was the correct action.

    Is this only for containers in galleries? 
    I use container quite often and haven’t come across this before.

    @asafweis as far as I have seen, inside a Gallery or inside the DataCard of a Form.
