Update text Field On Button Press

[Aturner6587]

Hello,

I'm new to Powerapps and struggling with this one so would appreciate any help that can be provided.

I have a multiscreen Form. On the first screen I have a button titled "CartonButton". When I press this button, I want it to update a text field "MaterialType" (which is on a different screen), and then transition to that different screen - Titled 'AddCarton'.

Is anyone able to help me with the fx for this? Not sure if I require to update the Default value, the onSelect etc.

Any help you can provide really would be apprecaited!

Thanks

Aaron

Please note that you can provide an addidional (third) parameter to your "Navigate" function and then use it on the target screen.

The following should work:

1. Create a new app

2. Add Button1 on Screen1

3. Add Screen2

4. Add Label1 on Screen2

5. Set Button1.OnSelect=Navigate(Screen2, ScreenTransition.Cover, {msg:"Updated"})

6. Set Label1.Text=msg

Note the "msg" parameter that is passed with "Navigate" function. In your case, it would probably be osmething like:

Navigate(Screen2, ScreenTransition.Cover, {msg:MaterialType.Value})
