How to use else if condition?

[Muhammad_Ali]

Hi,

I want to use else if condition over Display Mode property of field, e.g. If <Condition>, <DisplayMode.Disabled> else if <Condition>, <DisplayMode.Disabled> else <DisplayMode.Edit>.

Thanks

Hi Muhammad_Ali,

There are a couple of ways to do this using either If() or Switch() functions.

The If() function was also updated to operate much like a Switch statement, so you can probably just use If()

If( Condition, ThenResult [, DefaultResult ] )
If( Condition1, ThenResult1 [, Condition2, ThenResult2, ... [ , DefaultResult ] ] )

or looking at it another way;

If(condition, trueresult, condition, trueresult, condition, trueresult, defaultresult)

For your example;

If(condition, DisplayMode.Disabled, condition, DisplayMode.Disabled, condition, DisplayMode.Edit)

Hope this helps,

Hi @Muhammad_Ali,

The else if condition is not supported within PowerApps currently. I think the If function could achieve your needs within PowerApps.

The standard formula format of If function as below:

If( Condition, ThenResult [, DefaultResult ] )
If( Condition1, ThenResult1 [, Condition2, ThenResult2, ... [ , DefaultResult ] ] )

On your side, please take a try to set the DisplayMode property of the field to following formula:

If(
  Condition1,
  DisplayMode.Disabled,
  Condition2,
  DisplayMode.Disabled,
  DisplayMode.Edit
)

More details about the If function in PowerApps, please check the following article:
