Disable multiple selection of checkboxes in Power Apps gallery

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I have added a list of checkboxes in the PowerApps gallery. I want to prevent the user from selecting more than one checkbox.

If condition is an option but it's not suitable for my scenario as the list of checkboxes is dynamic.

The number of checkboxes can increase or decrease anytime based on events. Please suggest if there is any possible solution for this.

    Hi @Anonymous - can you share a screen grab? - is it a list of check boxes with one in each row of the Gallery, or is it a subgroup of check boxes, one in each row of your gallery?

     

    One potential option, but depends on your response to the above, is to collect that item OnCheck of your checkbox:

     

    Collect(YourCollection, ThisItem)

     

    and then try setting the display mode of your Checkbox to

     

    If(IsEmpty(YourCollection) || ThisItem.ID in YourCollection, DisplayMode.Edit, DisplayMode.Disabled)

     

    Then add this to the OnUncheck:

     

    Remove(YourCollection, ThisItem)
