PowerApps: Hide button if text field is blank

[leslie_rivera]

I want to hide a button that navigates to a different screen if text boxes are left blank. Cannot make them required because I just need either one of them to be filled out.

One is a check box and the other is a text field that someone can enter data. So the person can either click on the checkbox or enter custom data in the text field. I dont want them to be able to just go passed it and click on the next page.. makes sense?

This is the custom text box

This is the checkbox card

You can make use of PowerApps function and variables to achieve the desired scenario.

--> Select the check box control present in the form(don't select on summary form, select directly internet main checkbox) select that checkbox and enter the below formula on the Oncheck and Onuncheck properties of the check box

--> Set(vis,true) - OnCheck & Set(vis,false) - OnUncheck. The point why we are not using the default mentioned formula is that, when we do IsEmtpy or Isblank it concentrate's on the text part of the control and check's that that specific field has some value or not

--> As we cannot operate Checkboxes with out any pretext, that's why we are using variable for storing the response. 

--> After the variable declaration configure the below formula on the button

vis Or !IsBlank(TextInput1.Text)

--> the formula helps in controlling visibility and also enable behavior to enable only if one of two controls is connected.
