Toggle Mindboggle

[ericonline]

Hello,

I'm getting loopy on this one. Usually a good time to reach out for help (or to just practice describing complexity in text 🙂 )

Scenario:

• Gallery where each item has a Toggle Control ("little toggles")
  • Data Source feeding the Gallery has a toggle "value" for each Item
  • Default Property of "little toggles" set to the Data Source toggle "value" OR the MasterToggle ("BigToggle") value depending on:
    • The state of the Data Source toggle value AND
    • The state of the BigToggle
  • Visual Aid:
  • 

Problem:

• OnChange of "little toggles":
  • IF toggle value does not equal Data Source value,  Collect ID and Status from ThisItem
  • IF value does equal Data Source, do not Collect anything, AND, if the ID and Status were already collected for ThisItem, Remove them from the Collection.
• Here is the mess of code i'm wrapped around:

  • If(
        Or(
            ThisItem.NestedTable1.Status <> 
                If(
                    little_toggle.Value = false,"N",  // The Data Source toggle values come in as "N" or "Y".
                    little_toggle.Value = true,"Y"
                ),
            IsBlank(
                Filter(
                    First(
                        colStatus.NestedTable
                    ).NestedTable2, 
                    NestedObject.ID = ThisItem.NestedObject.ID
                )
            )
        ),
        Collect(colStatus,
            Table(
                {
                    all: kinds,
                    ofCrazy:
                    Table(
                        {
                            things: ThisItem.what,
                            things2: ThisItem.seriously,
                            NestedTable2: {
                                ID: ThisItem.NestedObject.ID,
                            },
                            NestedTable1:{
                                Status: 
                                If(
                                   little_toggle.Value = false,"N",
                                    little_toggle.Value = true,"Y"
                                )
                            }
                        }
                    )
                }
            )
        ),
        Remove(
            First(colStatus.NestedTable2
                    ).NestedTable2,
            LookUp(                                   //Also tried Filter here, no go
                First(colStatus.NestedTable2
                    ).NestedTable2, 
                    NestedObject.ID= ThisItem.NestedObject.ID
                )
        )
    )

Looking for: 

• Another set of eyes!
• Someone to shed some pointers, who's had a similar "BigToggle/littletoggle" scenarios where you Collect one way, then Remove the other. 

Thanks!

Hi @ericonline ,

Could you please share a bit more about your issue?

Do you mean that the Remove() formula part within the formula that you provided do not work?

Based on the formula that you provided, I think there is something wrong with it. I have made a test on my side, please consider take a try to modify your formula as below:

If(
    Or(
        ThisItem.NestedTable1.Status <> 
            If(
                little_toggle.Value = false,"N",  // The Data Source toggle values come in as "N" or "Y".
                little_toggle.Value = true,"Y"
            ),
        IsBlank(
            Filter(
                First(
                    colStatus.NestedTable
                ).NestedTable2, 
                NestedObject.ID = ThisItem.NestedObject.ID
            )
        )
    ),
    Collect(colStatus,
        Table(
            {
                all: kinds,
                ofCrazy:
                Table(
                    {
                        things: ThisItem.what,
                        things2: ThisItem.seriously,
                        NestedTable2: {
                            ID: ThisItem.NestedObject.ID,
                        },
                        NestedTable1:{
                            Status: 
                            If(
                               little_toggle.Value = false,"N",
                                little_toggle.Value = true,"Y"
                            )
                        }
                    }
                )
            }
        )
    ),
    Remove(    /* <-- Modify your formula here */
           colStatus,   /* <-- Type your Collection data source here, rather than nested table */
           LookUp(colStatus, First(ofCarry.NestedTable2).NestedTable2.ID = ThisItem.NestedObject.ID)
    )
)

Please take a try with above solution, then check if the issue is solved.
