Power Apps Reset a Gallery and varRecord instead of Selected

Do you ever need to "reset" your gallery but you then get confused by the selected item or how that affects the data in forms and other related controls? I bet you do. Good news I explain how to make it all better using varRecord and a couple of little changes to the way you normally build things. Pure gold here. 🥇

One other way this helped is I have 2 galleries on one screen (respectively filtered by 1 of 2 status types) and they alternate their visibility based on a toggle switch, THEN the selected gallery item shows on a connected form on that same screen. With this solution, the form shows varRecord from whichever form with no issues! Thanks again Shane... VERY, VERY HELPFUL!!!

If you have been struggling with this like me, the above video saved my current app and all future ones. There was an issue I was getting. I had a different screen for viewing the results. All you need to do is add Navigate after the set varRecord, this will then pass the results to the view screen: Set(varRecord, ThisItem); Navigate(View) [View is the name of my view screen]

Hi Shane! I did a universal replace of gal selected with var record. Worked great-thank you! The problem now is that when I patch something and my items go back into view mode, they are not reflecting the change anymore. Before, after a moment, my record items (I don’t use a form, but a free-form canvas linked to a gallery) would reflect the updated data after my patch. They don’t do that anymore, and I have to return to my gallery, reselect the item and then the record will show the updated information. I have my attachments in a form and it is not updating to show my saved attachment changes patch either. I’ve been at a loss for a few days on how to get that back.

The only thing I had to fix was to hide the 2nd gallery if nothing was stored in my variable - and also the 'add' button, and change the title. but thank you!

Shane, the OnSelect() in the Gallery gets triggered only when the user clicks on it. But there are senarios where we select a item in the gallery dynamically (using the defaults property). In such cases using the varSelected approach will not work.

The same button that sets the defaults back could also populate the variable 😊

Hi Shane! Need your help! I'm using a variable to select the item from a gallery which routes a user to another screen displaying the form. When the user submits the form, it will update the record and retain the selected item. I'm using lookup on the items property of the form to capture the variable ID. However, if they click to edit the form again and resubmit, the item becomes deselected. Any ideas on why this might be happening?

Hi Shane, That was very helpful. The one thing I haven't been able to figure out is that I'm using a radio button choice list with my gallery and form.

When a user selects the question and then chooses another category, it continues to display the answer for the previous question rather than the text label. How can I get the gallery to also initially just show the text label message when the user selects a radio button? I imagine I have to change the OnSelect property with the radio button.

I just stumbled on this! I have a Records list screen (which has the gallery), a Record Detail screen to display the selected record on a View form and also it's child items, and a Record Entry screen for adding new record, or editing the selected record. When I selected a record for edit, after successful submit, I want to navigate to the Record Detail screen and have it show the updated record. But because it's Item property is Gallery.Selected, it always shows the first item, as the submit causes the gallery to refresh. So I tried to use Set(varRecord, ThisItem) in the OnSelect property of the gallery, then have the View Form's Item property set to varRecord. However, after submiting the changes, the View form remains showing the selected record, but values are before the submit. So, in the OnSuccess event of the edit form, I do a Set(varRecord, frmEdit.LastSubmit). This seems to finally achieved what I want. But I'm not sure if this is the best way of doing it. 😄 Ideally I wish there is a way to set the selected item of the gallery to the the one that was selected before, after the gallery is refreshed.

Hi Shane awesome video...

Thanks Stephen 😊

Hey Shane, very helpful videos! I have a question here. I'm trying to make a button visible to managers only (and we have 100+ managers in the company( ° △ °|||). I know from your previous video that I can make a button visible to a specific person by setting up "visible = If(User().email = "this person's email address", true, false)". Is there anyway that allows me to make a button visible to a group of people without having to add their email addresses one by one? Thank you!

I think it is this app I show how to do it also by doing a lookup against a list of people. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zn6lXq1vmN55ebM

I switched my design to varRecord .. now i cant upload my attachments any longer 😅 .. the upload is broken

[@ShanesCows]

Boo. Hope you figure out why.

[@rsmaster5637]

It was an easy fix.. return to the old state till i fully understand the attachment upload 😁

[@rsmaster5637]

Thats a tricky homework :).. first i found nothing was wrong with the upload . The only thing whats not happening is the refresh of the edit fields .. when using gallery.selected it gets triggered automatic . When using varRecord the Data in the Attachment field don’t gets refreshed after the upload. It seems putting the gallery.selected in a variable creates more problems than it solves

Thank you Shane san 😍😍

[@ShanesCows]

I got you! 😎

[@ally1708]

great video

[@ShanesCows]

Thanks!

[@rjcameron4128]

Shane, really enjoy your videos. One issue that I am seeing is that varRecord does not consistently change when I select another record in the gallery.

[@ShanesCows]

Try setting OnSelect of the gallery to the Set formula.

[@pradipk8224]

Thank you so muchhhh..

[@ShanesCows]

You're welcome!

[@jaguscikm]

Isn't easier is to set default to {} It sets default to empty and no need to call another variable...
