Reset a checkbox to blank OnVisible

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi all,

I am currently trying to reset multiple checkboxes to blank after loading a current page.

My current method is adding an UpdateContext({ClearCheckbox: true}) on the OnVisible, then adding ClearCheckbox on to the checkbox "Reset"

Anyone have some ideas they could share?

Thanks.

Hi,

What is the Default property of your checkbox set to? If you have the Default set to 'false' you can simply put this in the OnVisible property of your screen:

Reset(Checkbox1)
Would that work?

Try

UpdateContext({ClearCheckbox: false}) UpdateContext({ClearCheckbox: true})

You have to actually change the value of the variable to trigger the reset IIRC.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Do you want to reset multiple Checkboxes when you navigate to the target screen (which contains the multiple Checkboxes)?

Based on the formula you provided, I think there is something issue with it. I have made a test on my side, please take a try with the following workaround:

Set the OnVisible property of the target screen to following:

UpdateContext({ClearCheckbox: false});
UpdateContext({ClearCheckbox: true})

Set the Reset property of each Checkbox control within your Target screen to following:

ClearCheckbox

Please consider take a try with above solution, then check if the issue is solved.

Best regards,

This worked!
Was not aware that I needed to set the variable for both true and false.
Thank you for the solution.

Hi,

Working in Power Apps for Teams environment and there is no "reset" or "default" property attached to the checkboxes. Any one have any other ideas?
