General Query about Sharepoint list customized Powerapp

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 1,257 Super User 2024 Season 1

When you open a customized form from a sharepoint list by double clicking on the item, the "New" form shows briefly (a couple of seconds) before the "View" form.. I'm used to it and always just ignore it.. but my users have now started commenting on this and it's annoying them 🙂  Anyway way to prevent this?  Hopefully you understand what I mean

    Hi @vffdd ,

    Have a look in SharePointIntegration OnNew, OnView, OnSave and OnEdit for the actions and also the DefaultMode of the form (is it FormMode.New)?

    It should be somewhere in there.

    ok this one is really really bugging me !!🙄  I cannot find a solution for it.   I have read a ton of posts and tried lots of things.

     

    I have 3 screens in the powerapp  ScreenNew  ScreenView  ScreenEdit.   When I double click on an item in the sharepoint list  ScreenNew appears for a few seconds before ScreenView.  It's really annoying people ! 

     

    My sharepoint integration "On View"  says this

     

    Set(SharePointFormMode, "ShowForm"); ViewForm('FormView-Basic'); Navigate(ScreenView, ScreenTransition.None);Set(VarBase,true);Set(Varcomment,false);Set(VarEandO,false)

     

    I've tried moving the Navigate command around and putting it first but still no joy?

     

    Really appreciate any help on this one !! 🙂

     

    many thanks

    Hi @vffdd ,

    By the look of your OnView properties, this form has been very customised from the standard template PowerApps will generate.

    The main areas that may affect the behaviour of the PowerApps form customised with SharePointIntegration are OnView, OnNew, OnEdit and onSave in the actual  SharePointIntegraton settings and also the DefaultMode of the form itself.

    For instance I always set the DefaultMode to FormMode.View, which opens off a double-click  on the item and then the other attributes of form mode are taken care of by the standard transition icons when clicked. 

    If for instance the Form DefaultMode is FormMode.New (unlikely unless it has been modified to this), it would probably act as you describe.

    Can you please list the properties of these items and we may find the culprit.

    Yes I have customized it a good bit. I have 3 screens  I have more than one form on each screen and the default mode of each of these are view.  The issue doesn't appear to be about the form.   I think it's more to do with the default screen that is showing, when I view an item which is the  ScreenNew rather than the ScreenView.   It only lasts a couple of seconds as it figures out what that it's supposed to be the ScreenView but it's actually really annoying for people LOL because the 2 screens are very different visually so you can't but notice it !!

    ok @WarrenBelz  I've found a workaround !  I covered the NewScreen with a large rectangle so you can't see the items and I can put whatever message on that I want.. loading... etc..   .. I set the visibility to VarScreen and then I added  Set (VarScreen, true) into the beginning of the OnView of the sharepoint integration.  It's not exactly what I was looking for it but it does solve the problem of the NewScreen showing for few secs now you just see the Rectangle ! 😅
