Sharepoint Power Apps form not displaying in correct size

Posted on by OVCA

Something weird is happening to my Power Apps form in Sharepoint.

I built a form for my list in large, landscape size. IN testing, the form acted as expected.

In its first "real" use, however, it is shrinking down to fill the top part of the right column only. Why would this be happening? What can I do to revert back to the old behavior?

Hi @OVCA

Is your app is a responsive app? It means are you using ScreenSize.Small/Medium/Large property?
Is it happening on previous versions?

To go to previous versions
Close the app
Select the App from the List of Apps
Click "..." to go to Details
Click Versions tab
Select the version
Click Restore

1. I cannot find that property anywhere on the form. When I built the form, the settings were Large and Landscape.

2. I cannot find the Sharepoint form anywhere in my list of apps. Is there another place to see the versions of a sharepoint power apps form?

I still cant see the form I'm trying to modify using this method. I can only access the form through Sharepoint, where I was able to find previous versions.

Either way, I think I may have stumbled onto a solution. Under the FormScreen Width property, there was an expression that had a Max and Min value. I deleted the Min value and left the Max expression as "App.Width". Same with the Height property. This seems to have done the trick.

Thank you for assisting. Your initial troubleshooting caused me to look deeper into the properties where I found this,

Hi @OVCA ,

Set the screen size fixed to the App's height and width would make the screen not responsive to the resolution of users' browsers/monitors. The issue more likely due to the browser cache. Please try and clear your browser cache after modifying and publishing your customize form to test it with.

I ran into the same issue. Solved it by clearing my browser cache, publishing a previous version of the app, and finally re-publishing the actual version I needed.

No, Custom Sharepoint forms do not always show up in the Powerapps Area.
In order to restore a previous version of a custom form when it doesn't show up in the Power Apps Area, first go to the Sharepoint list
Select the gear icon in the top right.
Click "List settings"
Click "Form settings"
Under the radio button "Use a custom form..." Click "See versions and usage"
Select the "Versions" tab
Select the version you want to restore (remember to save each version with version notes to make it easier to find which version you need)

As for portrait mode on the custom form, I also cannot get that to work. Even after restoring a previous version and clearing my browser cache. The thumbnail in the app settings even shows a preview of what the form popout should look like.

It took a day or two for my custom form to start displaying properly.
My suggestion is to set the size you want, publish the custom form, and then wait for it to display properly in Sharepoint before continuing development.
You can also try adding "?env=WebViewList" to the end of the Sharepoint url to see if it displays properly, or try loading it from the desktop version of Microsoft Lists.
