SharePoint List form new/edit

Hi

 

I am trying to edit a sharepoint list form in powerapps, should be fairly simple in that I want to display a text input field when the form is in new mode but hide it when in edit mode. For the life of me I can't get the visible property to set I know it should be:

If(myfrom.mode=new,true,false)

 

But I can't seem to work out the name of my form its not coming up on the intelisence, what I thought was the form name appears to be the actual table name from which the form is linked (If I put that in I get an error data type table). Any ideas what I'm doing wrong if I check the app name I get the table name on the site forms so Reviews on The Way forms

    You are inside the form so you can't access it by name. But if you are in the Visible property of the card taht holds the field then you can use the following.

    If(Parent.Mode = FormMode.Edit, true,false)

     Parent in this case would be the parent of the card, which is the form.
