Hi @Anonymous ,

Try this

Sort(
   Filter(
      FIT,
      StartsWith(
         'Matrix Version',
         TextInput1.Text
      ) && 
      (
         Dropdown1.Selected.Result = Blank() || 
         Title = Dropdown1.Selected.Result
      )
   ),
   Version      
)

Hi @WarrenBelz ,

Sorry for my late reply & thanks for your help.

I'm new to power apps and I have no programming experience... so I'm still work on this problem.

I don't know why there is some errors after use your grammar, and how to use the button? Should I add grammar to the button?

I found the solution! This can be work:

Sort(If(Dropdown1.Selected.Result = Blank(),Filter(FIT,StartsWith('Matrix Version',TextInput1.Text)),
Filter(FIT, Title = Dropdown1.Selected.Result And StartsWith('Matrix Version',TextInput1.Text))),'Matrix Version',If(varsort,Ascending,Descending))

and the button use this, OnSelect:

UpdateContext({varsort:!varsort})

Hi @Anonymous ,

That code is for the Items of a gallery.

@Anonymous ,

A bit more compact with the original syntax I posted

Sort(
   Filter(
      FIT,
      StartsWith('Matrix Version',TextInput1.Text) &&
      (Dropdown1.Selected.Result = Blank() || Title = Dropdown1.Selected.Result)
   ),
   'Matrix Version',
   If(
      varsort,
      Ascending,
      Descending
   )
)
