A horizontal gallery of builtin-icons

[RMC-Pro]

Hello Community,

I would like to use a Gallery to show a group of selected Built-In-Icons (e.g., collected in Collection). Just icons. Is that doable?

Any solution/hint would be much appreciated.

Hi,

sure this is possible and even necessary if you for example want to create a navigation component.

Here is an example for a collection where I store the icons and the screen to navigate to.

ClearCollect(
    config;
    {
        ScreenID: 1;
        ScreenName: "Overview";
        Icon: Icon.Home;
        Screen: Overview
    };
    {
        ScreenID: 2;
        ScreenName: "Time";
        Icon: Icon.Clock;
        Screen: 'Travel and Time'
    };
    {
        ScreenID: 3;
        ScreenName: "Shopping Cart";
        Icon: Icon.ShoppingCart;
        Screen: 'Shopping Cart'
    }
)

Of course you could only collect these items.

ClearCollect(
    colIcons;
    {Icon: Icon.Home};
    {Icon: Icon.Clock};
    {Icon: Icon.ShoppingCart}
)

Then Place an icon inside the gallery and set the Icon.Icon = ThisItem.Icon.

Gallery.Items = config or colIcons.

Hope this helps.

Best regards

Hello @Florian_Kleinz,

great. I tried (your suggestion a bit modified) and it works.

At this time I believe it might be I will need components afterall. As my Icon.Onelect is not navigation to other screen but some actions on the same screen. However your suggestion offers what I was asking for.  I am marking your answer as a solution.

Additionally, I would also need some CoreControles (e.g., Slider, ComboBox, Radio) included into collection. Is that also possible - I don't know how to address the controls? I found something like 'Microsoft.CoreControls', am I in (aprox) right direction?

Hello,

you can add every control inside a gallery.

It depends what you want to do with these controls.

In this case you need to use PATCH to update your collection.

Best regards

Hi @Florian_Kleinz ,

I know I can put Contros into Gallery, I was thinking of building a Collection with mixure of Icons and Controls which then I would put into a Gallery - scrolling left and right (having cool Menu Line). That seems doesn't work.

But everything else, with Icons (scrolling left-right, different OnSelect - on the level of Gallery, ...), works as a hoped for.
