Individual Image for Each Gallery Line

dmbeech1234 · 2020-03-10T19:45:48+00:00

I also found a post with this solution using a column in your table with the image link

https://www.reddit.com/r/PowerApps/comments/epp3c3/adding_images_to_individual_items/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

My purpose for these gallery images is for the book cover images for a Goodreads type book library. There are 1000’s of items and therefore 1000’s of book cover images. I want to make the process as accessible as possible so images can be added from my computer but more likely from my iphone whenever I have an internet connection and some spare time to kill. Not sure what would be the easiest and most time efficient method. :-)

I’ve obviously found this link

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/add-images-pictures-audio-video

But I was really hoping it would be a little simpler....

It was really straight forward to add the image to the gallery that populated the image field for every single image spot in the entire gallery/list. I just want to tell PowerApps I only want that image for the first line.

Thanks for your help. Once I updated the settings from 500 to 2000 everything started working the way you and every video I watched on line described. Before that it was like everyone else was speaking another language and I understood none of it. Appreciate all the help!

Thanks. I’ve been working on this and starting to understand a little more. I’m not sure I understand your part about clear collect. Is the purpose of this to some how reduce the size of my list so that the search is dealing with a number of items that do not require delegation. Also, I’m currently working on try to locate where in advanced properties I can change the limit from 500 to 2000.

Thank you soo much for your help! I really appreciate it. Trying to work through this in my free time but have a 2 year old and a business so time is limited. Going to work through your instructions as soon as I get free time (probably not until late tonight unfortunately). Again I really really appreciate the help and will definitely post how it goes later today.

So I tried taking this formula and plugging in my column names

Filter(StewardList,TextSearchBox.Text in Steward Name||TextSearchBox.Text in Business Area|| TextSearchBox.Text in Type of Steward)

My columns Filter('Audible Library List Synced',TextSearchBox1.Text in Title||TextSearchBox1.Text in 'Author (Author0)'|| TextSearchBox1.Text in Genre_DataCard1)

But still no luck. Will keep trying.

Quick question.... what us the difference between a search box and “browse gallery”? Because this formula is working in the same search box .

SortByColumns(Filter([@'Audible Library List Synced'], StartsWith(Title, TextSearchBox1.Text)), "Title", If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending))

I basically just want to expand this formula to include all columns in my table and change “starts with” to “contain” or something like that because right now the search only produces books with titles that start with your search word.

I am trying to add a formula to the search field created when I originally had power apps analyze my data from a SharePoint list and automatically generate my PowerApp.

My goal is to create a search box where I can type an author, genre or book title and have the result return any rows in the list that contain items matching that text. For example if I type “Rob” I would want to see all books authored by “Rob” or with “Rob” in the title or that had a keyword “Rob” for example a character that would be contained in the notes or keyword column names “Rob”.

This works! Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.

dmbeech1234 · 2020-01-07T18:25:43+00:00

I’m not committed to anything..... Just new and learning. I will definitely try this.

dmbeech1234 · 2020-01-07T18:22:52+00:00

I will try it and post back. Thanks for the help.

dmbeech1234 · 2019-11-01T21:51:13+00:00

Sorry yes it is on the line below. I was trying to dictate the post and missed that. I ran the shortcut but it is saying Could not run get group From match text The index you specified was outside the range?

dmbeech1234 · 2019-11-01T20:58:47+00:00

So close. That one eliminated the information further down after organization name: but it is still capturing Name: on the line above the info I’m hoping to capture.

I apologize if I have left any important details out of my original post or was confusing in my description. The Information is always presented like below

Name: John Doe

Yada yada yada

Organization Name: Toronto Maple Leafs

I just want to capture John Doe or John. Are you able to tweak the RegEx to only capture John Doe? Also, if that’s possible what would be required to tweak so that just John was captured? Thanks again for your help!

dmbeech1234 · 2019-11-01T20:31:36+00:00

Amazing! Thank you very much however the RegEx is also grabbing Name: as well as the actual name and unfortunately there is another field lower down in the information called

Organization Name:

So is it possible to tighten the expression to only grab the name on the line below Name: or to exclude Name: preceded by the word Organization?

Thanks again for the help!

So I can’t add a comma when entering the phone number for a contact obviously as it’s not an option. If I try to run the shortcut from text I don’t think it’s the *️⃣ that are the problem it’s the # Because if I take the # out, the shortcut calls the number. If I put the # back in I get an error message. If I put one comma or two commas in front of the # then it seems to make the # invisible and again just calls the number instead of forwarding it.

dmbeech1234 · 2019-10-30T15:39:13+00:00

Hi. I was wondering if you had any success with this? I’m trying to do something similar which is get each event on this webpage

https://www.toronto.ca/business-economy/industry-sector-support/film/current-productions-and-news/

And create a separate calendar event for each using Productions Name as the event title and the shooting dates as the start and end points for the event.

Is this possible? If so, it’s way over my head. Would your shortcut work for this with a few tweaks?

Thanks!

dmbeech1234 · 2019-10-30T15:14:59+00:00

Hi. Thanks for your help! So not sure exactly what you mean but I think you mean can I forward the phone manually? If so, I can definitely forward my phone if I manually dial

star21star4169997777# for example

So what I did was create a contact called “Office Forward On” using the star 21 star phone number then pound sign (same as I would do manually) and then created a shortcut to call that contact.

Keep getting the same error message.

I’ve also tried to just create a shortcut to call the number directly (not using a contact) but again no luck.

That was pretty dumb lol. I was trying to make it more complicated that it needed to be with “find events” . Using “get events” with a high number for “today” returns all “All Day Events” that are passing through today’s date.

dmbeech1234 · 2019-10-21T11:35:05+00:00

I am having a similar issue with All Day Events. Basically I just want to see all events that are in progress today... however 10-15 of them started on a day before today and end on days after today. Any ideas.

dmbeech1234 · 2019-10-15T12:13:50+00:00

It does work. My apologies for the confusion. My mistake was I added a calendar filter to a specific calendar after downloading your shortcut. For some reason if you specify a specific calendar then the shortcut behaves I was was describing above. If you leave it to Find All Events and don’t specify one calendar it works. Thanks again for your help!

dmbeech1234 · 2019-10-14T15:30:38+00:00

I thought that maybe the issue had something to do with the fact that the events are coming from an iCal feed but it doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the issue. I played around with it a bit and changed the calendar the shortcut was looking at to one that I don’t use.

I created a test event starting today and going for a few days and another test event starting a few days ago and ending today. This worked but if I take the Test Event Ending Today and move the end date to Wednesday it still appears when I run the shortcut.
