Dynamically set commands

Posted on by Miwisluck

Hi, I'm new to powerApps and I'm trying to make a simple practice app to get more familiar with it. I've dynamically created tabs of sort using a gallery however I'm trying to make each tab/button either change to a different screen or make other elements such as buttons visible? Any direction on how I might get this done would be brilliant.

This is what I've currently got and I've been trying to implement a command of sorts within this but I am having no luck

ClearCollect(
colTabs,
{
ID: 1,
Name: "Users",
Logo: Icon.AddUser,
command: "Navigate(Screen1, ScreenTransition.Fade)"
},
{
ID: 2,
Name: "Workpace",
Logo: Icon.AddLibrary,
command: "test"
},
{
ID: 3,
Name: "Spare",
Logo: Icon.ComputerDesktop,
command: "test"
},
{
ID: 4,
Name: "Spare",
Logo: Icon.CameraAperture,
command: "test"
}
);

Cheers

Hi @Miwisluck ,

You cannot refer to Elements like icons or commands dynamically, however you could us the name with hard-coding.

In the image control for instance

Switch( ThisItem.Name, "Users", AddUser, "Workpace", AddLibrary, "Spare", ComputerDesktop, "Spare", CameraAperture, )

and on the OnSelect

Switch( ThisItem.Name, Navigate(Screen1, ScreenTransition.Fade), "Workpace", . . . . . . . . )
