No Item to Display but only when I run the App

[Skemaz]

Hi

If you check out the top screenshot with my App open in the Desktop, the data populates the Edit Form.

However in the screenshot below that, when I run the app I see "No Item to Display".

It's got me stumped. You assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Regards, Mark.

Hi Skemaz,

Where did you run this app? On a tablet? If so, make sure that you are using the tablet layout when you create the app. Also I saw in the screenshot that all the data cards and text box are too wide to fit in with the app display screen. 

Please adjust this and then have a try.

Regards,

Mona

Mona,

I am having the same issue, however, I am using the phone layout on a laptop. I can not get my form to display when I select preview.

Hi

Thanks for your assistance.

I'm running on a Windows10 2 in 1 machine and the App is in Tablet Mode.

When I created the app for Tablet mode, it set the app to a defaukt size of 4:3 (iPad).

Later I tred to switch it to 16:10 (Widescreen).

When I made the change 3 things happened:

(1) My font sizes were increased and I had to manually fix them because they were way to big.

(2) The issue you pointed out in your screenshot where the Gallery stayed the same size meaning it didn't stretch to match the new resolution. I cannot fix this at the moment because the setting available for sizing the Gallery control doesn't allow this.

(3) When I go back to the "Screen Size and Orientation" setting I see it's been set back to 4:3 (iPad)! - see screenshot below.

It's a bit of a mess but I'm trying to work through the issues one at a time starting with why I see the "No Item" message rather than the Edit fields.

If anything comes to mind to assist I'll be most grateful.

Thanks, Mark.

Hi Mark, did you manage to solve the "no item to display" issue? I have the same issue and I can't figure out why this happens...

Hi Willem
I wound up trashing what I had built and used a template.
Sorry I can't be more helpful.

thanks Mark anyway,

I tried something and the following helped me:
1. on the Editform in the Editscreen there is a Property "Item"
2. this property needs to be set also to, for example "BrowseGallery1.selected"
3. this BrowseGallery can be found the browse screen
