Easily create pop ups in Power Apps using Context Variables! Watch this video to learn how to easily set the visibility of certain controls based on the actions of the Users of your Application. #microsoft #powerapps #tutorial
Thanks for the video. Useful example. I was already trying to build this using the same technique, but as a library component with custom properties that allow text to be set, and responsive sizing and positioning. I have been hitting a few hurdles with the implementation (not the least of which is the bugs in App Studio that are currently preventing published changes to library components from propagating to apps using the component), but starting to get to some sort of workability now, although I can’t seem to get it to show/hide correctly yet. I think the secret might lie in the use of a context variable as you’ve shown (I was trying to use a global combined with a custom property). Thanks for the pointer. Curious whether you’ve implemented this as a library component yourself? It seemed to make sense to have one single reusable control. Still can’t believe the Power Apps authors neglected to include a msgbox control
Thanks for the information, but i have a problem when I want to select all the items, becuase the app don´t let me select all of them just one by one. Please could you tell me how did you do that?
Hello.. I was wandering if we can have a Popup visible if we click or Hover over a label which is in display mode 'Disabled'. The idea is that when a user would like to pres a item which is 'disabled' , than a a popup would explain to him why he can't go turther or what he shoud do in order to continue normally the process. Thank you for your help.
Hey at 7:06 you quickly duplicate the "Yes, Delete" button but it doesn't look like you're just using ctrl-c and ctrl-v because when I do it this way the pasted item always lands way up in the top left corner of my screen. How did you do that so quickly? Thanks
So if you want the pop up visible or hidden on all screens at the same time, then use a global variable instead of a local variable. Build the pop-up on one screen and copy/paste it to all screens. To set a GLOBAL variable use the Set() formula instead of the UpdateContext() formula
Asking do you have any idea how to add pop up mesage when loading apps , if i click yes i close pop up message and continue, and if i click no i just close pop up message , thanks
You are very right. I have stopped using the refresh function recently, but unfortunately not before I made this video. I'm always learning and trying to improve too! :) thanks for the feedback and bringing visibility to this topic!
thanks, i have one question and i need some suggestions, i have a condition where popup will be there OnStart screen and it has two button Yes and No on yes it will go to different screen but on No what should be the condition to close the entire popup and show the back screen...i know the logic when onclick on any button popup will come and from there we can do our stuff as we like but if popup is already there then how should be logic to close that on click on No button.
In the OnStart property of the app, set a global variable to true.... set the visibility of the pop up to that Variable. On click of the no button, set the Variavle to false. Hope I understood the question properly amd that it solves it!
Having trouble making this work. I'm not using a gallery item like you did. Instead, I'm in a detail screen trying to get an Info icon to display more info. I grouped the items I want to become visible, but I can't make them appear when I press the icon. Any thoughts?
I'm having a similar issue. I'm using containers instead of a gallery because I don't need the gallery functionality. The error I'm getting is that the "Select of a control (in my case a Container) that doesn't have an OnSelect property." Did you ever get your issue figured out?
@@ryanmott1282 leave out the Select(Parent); part. Since you're not using a gallery and you're working directly with the OnSelect action for the button, you don't need to select anything additional.
3rd video on creating dialogues or popups and I’m ready for pulling my hair out and smashing the computer up the wall…. Why is every single video trying to delete something from a data set??!! I JUST WANT A GODDAMNED POPUP TO POP-UP!!! Then have a button to go away again back to the screen before. Nothing fancy… nothing to interact with anything, nothing to control anything. I just want a simple pop up and then go away… (rocking back and forth in the corner holding my knees)
@@user-km8gy2er4o I did not… I just gave up on it. Was fed up of searching around and finding videos about stuff completely unrelated or overcomplicated.
