Combobox clear content when not visible

Have 2 comboboxes:

Combo Box 1: Yes, No, N/A

Combo Box 2: dropdown of a few options (Hidden and only visible when CB1 ="No")

 

If the user selects "No" and selects something in the 2nd combobox how do i make it so that if the user goes back to Combo Box 1 and selects "Yes" that the content of combobox 2 clears? 


At the moment it is writing it to sharepoint even though it was hidden. 


Thanks!

Hi @karlosch ,

Firstly, you should use the Self.Selected.Value if you are referring to the control value OnChange. Also the Visible property of your second combo box can simply be DataCardValue46.Selected.Value=“No”.

However these are not  necessary to address the issue as the syntax I have given you is certainly valid providing all the control and output names are valid - you are simply resetting a control to its Default value. What is the error you are getting?

Hi @karlosch ,

You obviously already have something on the OnChange of the first combo to unhide the second one. If you add

If(

   Self.Selected.Value=“Yes”,

   Reset(ComboBox2Name)

)

It will put the value of this back to the Default.

Thanks heaps, this worked! If(Self.Selected.Value= "Yes" ,Reset(DataCardValue43)) 

 

Do you know how this can be applied to a toggle? Trying to say, if toggle is unchecked, then reset x datacard

 

thanks! 

Hi @karlosch ,

For a toggle actioning on unchecked - you would put this OnChange

If(
   Self.Value= False,
   Reset(DataCardValue43)
) 

or possibly

If(
   !Self.Value,
   Reset(DataCardValue43)
)
