Select(Gallery,row,control) in OnSelect to select one items' button within gallery

[lgpower]

Hi there, 

I have two navigation galleries. One for mobile one for horizontal layouts. Both galleries have the following items:

Table(
    {
        Title: "";
        Icon: "";
        Context: "logo"
    };
    {
        Title: "";
        Icon: "";
        Context: "vorigScherm"
    };
    {
        Title: "Startpagina";
        Icon: Icon.Home;
        Context: "showDashboard"
    };
    {
        Title: "Weekstaten";
        Icon: Icon.Clock;
        Context: "showMijnWeekStaten"
    };
    {
        Title: "Projecten";
        
        Icon: Icon.Folder;
        Context: "showProjecten"
    };
    {
        Title: "Urenoverzichten";        
        Icon: Icon.LogJournal;
        Context: "showGoedkeuren"
    };
    {
        Title: "Ploegen portaal";       
        Icon: Icon.People;
        Context: "showPloegen"
    }
)

Based on ThisItem.Context field actions are performed such as navigating and updating collections. 

In my mobile navigation I want to have the exact same actions. Of course I could just copy paste the OnSelect code but I think a cleaner solution would be to use Select(Gallery;Row;Control). Someting like this: 

Select(
NavigationVert;
LookUp(
NavigationVert.AllItems;
Context = ThisItem.Context
);
navigationSelectControl
)

Unfortunately I cannot get this to work. Is it possible to select a variable row+control from a button in another gallery? 


Thanks in advance.

hi @lgpower just to clarify, when you click on the item you wish the navigation to take you to the form as per Context? if this is the case:

on the Onselect of the gallery, OnSelect = Navigate(ThisItem.Context,Transition.cover)

If you looking for something else, please explain a bit more.

hope this helps

Hi @rubin_boer,

Thanks for your reply.

Actually, I have most galleries within same screen. So one of the actions in the OnSelect is OnSelect = UpdateContext({showScreen:ThisItem.Context}) 

But yes, that is the general idea. 

So this works for the Vertical Nav (no issues navigating what so ever).

What I am trying to achieve is  the same behaviour in the horizontal Nav using OnSelect = Select(verticalNav,Row/Column,Control)

@lgpower im not 100% with you, do you mean the vertical control of the gallery itself?

Hi @lgpower ,

You could insert a number column in your second gallery.

I assume that the formula in the items property of your second gallery control 'NavigationVert' is:

Table({AAA:"a";BBB:"b"};{AAA:"c";BBB:"d"};{AAA:"e";BBB:"f"})

So, you should change the above formula to:

Table({AAA:"a";BBB:"b";Numbercolumn:1};{AAA:"c";BBB:"d";Numbercolumn:2};{AAA:"e";BBB:"f";Numbercolumn:3})

Then you could use this formula:

Select(
NavigationVert;
LookUp(
NavigationVert.AllItems;
Context = ThisItem.Context
).Numbercolumn;
navigationSelectControl
)
