Show the same DataCard across multiple tabs

[raewyne]

I have had a look at a previous post however it only shows me how to show one card, hoping someone can assist....

I have the following tabs under variable, VarFormTab

"Risk Assessment"

"Risk Training"

"Project Participation"

"Document Review"

The Datacard is named Requestor_DataCard

How do I show this DataCardas as visible across all the above tabs, I can only get it to show on one tab.

thanks for your support

Hi @raewyne 

We can control all Datacard visible based on a variable.

• Create Variable and set the property to true(In this case Variable name "RequestorVisible"), setting up on screen OnVisible property
• Assign the variable to DataCard Visible Property

Assumption: I believe you are one form and trying to control the data card based on the tab. Set the variable based on tab and assign the variable to visible property of the data card.

Thank you for your quick reply.

When you say create a variable, 

Below is an example of each datacard and the tab it needs to be visible in.

Do I need to create a variable for each tab?

Example

DataCard	tab- Risk Assessment	tab-Document Review	tab-Artefact Request
Requestor	X	X	X
Risk Assessment	X
Date of Request	X	X	X
Artefact Request			X

Hi @raewyne

• No variable is needed if the control needs visible all the time
• Use variable only visible changes based on tab
• We can achieve DataCard or control visible in 2 ways

1. Set the visible property based on the tab selected. This is the preferred way.

Set(SelectedTab, 1)

SelectedTab=1 // OR If(SelectedTab=1,true,false)

2. When you click on the tab set the variable for a specific control to true or False. And assign the variable to Datacard
