PowerApps Edit Form Autofill specific text based on Checkbox Entry

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 32

I am attempting to establish the below effect:

 

I am attempting to design my app so when the checkbox is marked "Yes"  that within the edit form within question 2 that it automatically will fill with the response "Yes". I have already figured out how to make the cell autofill a response (as you can see it is giving me "True" when checked and will give me "False" when not checked). I however am trying to change the autofilled text from "True" & "False" to "Yes" and "No"

    Hi clemett1

     

    If I understand you correctly, you want to enter "false" in the text field if the "Yes" checkbox is deselected and "true" if the "Yes" checkbox is activated. Is that correct? In this case, you can enter UpdateContext({lclCheckboxYes: true}) for the checkbox under "onCheck" and UpdateContext({lclCheckboxYes: false}) for "onUnCheck". You can then refer to lclCheckboxYes under "Default" in the text field.

     

    Does this answer your question?

     

    Best regards

    Ended up figuring it out!. Within the "Default" Had change it from just being the value of the checkbox to the following
