To say I am STOKED is understatement!

Hey- real quick... is it possible to use Patch within a function? I'm getting an error: Behavior function in Non-behavior property-- more directly, can we reuse behavior function code like patch?

[@PowerAppsTutorial]

In Power Apps, Patch is a behavior function, meaning it performs an action (such as writing data back to a data source), and it must be used within a context that expects a behavior function, like in a button’s OnSelect property or any other property that supports behaviors. Trying to use Patch in a non-behavior property, such as a label’s Text property, will trigger the "Behavior function in Non-behavior property" error.

For the slider positioning, couldn't you have just taken the midpoint between your min and max values (50) and added the difference between the two values? Like this 50 + (Value(Person1.Text)-Value(Person2.Text))

That works too!.. thanks for sharing 🚀

Why Rand() function never gives you 1, but could give you 0 in the same time, the same function multiplied by 100 cannot give you 0? It could I think kzbin.infoK3bP_L-nYws?si=Ykx_RxcOl4EutKLk&t=3241

By convention, many random number functions use a half-open interval, including the lower bound but excluding the upper bound, to simplify calculations and maintain consistency across different programming platforms.

Yes, I like it.

Glad you like it😉

Somehow disappointed on the content… I came to better understand User Defined Functions, and didn’t learnt much

Noted. I would imagine that our live streams aren't for everyone and I'm ok with that. If you like more structured presentations, click on the "video" tab. That's where those videos are at.
