Hi all,

 

I need some help to see if I can duplicate a text box using Button in Power Apps. I have to the Text box and a button in my power apps, and what I am trying to achieve is if the users need more Text boxes, they click on the button, and the following text box will display.

    This is not possible in powerapps. Depending on your required functionality you might want to have a Look at the Concept of using gallery control.

    Hi @Harris021 :

    I've made a test for your reference:

    1\Add a button and set it's OnSelect property to:

    Collect(TheCollection,1)

    2\Add a gallery and set it's items property to:

    TheCollection

    3\Add a text input control into the gallery

    Each time the button is clicked, the number of text input boxes will increase by one

    Hi @Harris021 ï¼š

    Yes , you can iterate through Gallery.AllItems to get the content of all textinput controls.
