I'm about to go crazy. I have a gallery named "Gallery" with a button that has the code: Select(Parent). When I submit a form, I want to clear the Gallery.Selected value. How can I do this?

Re: How do you clear a gallery's selected item?

This works well. I have two galleries and wanted to reset the one if I clicked an item in the other and vise versa. I had to use the Reset(gallery1) for the onselect of the item in gallery2 and Reset(gallery2) for the onselect of the item in gallery1. This works with the {} combination on the default property. Works well and exactly what I needed.

Well noted pwrappr01!

Just to be more clear if someone searches for it...
if you just Reset(Gallery) it returns to the Gallery default item, that is the first-row record by definition.
If the desired result is a non-Selected item you should go to the Gallery properties and change the Default parameter to {}.

@PowerAddict
Good call on that one. I was browsing the official docs for info and noticed the Reset property was missing. Very nice that you knew about this when its not even documented 😀

Works like a charm. I tried the Reset earlier, but I guess I had to add the {} as the default. Thanks for the help.

Have you tried resetting your gallery using Reset(Gallery)? You may have to set the default of your gallery to {}.

Let me know if this doesn't work.
