New Cards are moving when using Visible If on existing cards.

[anthonys123]

I have a form for employee assets - computer, cell phone, vehicle. If computer is selected, the cards pertinent to computer will appear and others will remain hidden. 

If(DataCardValue1.Selected.Value = "Computer",true,false)

When I add a new sharepoint column / new card, the position of that card is difficult to keep in place when unused cards are hidden. That's to say, the proper positioning of the cards really only works when all cards are visible. Then I can apply visible if for the form to work as intended. 

Well, I have dozens of cards currently visible if and have added a new card. For example, if I place the new card in the third position on the computer page, after publishing, it jumps to the last position.  So, it seems, that I need to go through and delete the visible if command from all the cards just to place one new card where I'd like it to appear. 

Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong (I'm new to this), if there's a work around, or if this is a known bug.

Hi @anthonys123 ,

Yes - that is something I have struck, so use a different approach. Do do this, you need the complete row to be either visible or not.

• Set a variable to be either true/false for the hidden property
• Set all controls in the card to be visible or not on this variable
• Set  the Height of the card to be zero or the normal height depending on the visibility required.

They all work fine as below
