Why are design properties missing in dataverse version of powerapps?

[Mo_Islam]

Hi,

Does anyone know why there are limitations around design elements when creating an app through Teams/Dataverse?

This did not use to be the case, or not that I can recall.

e.g. I cannot even change the color fill of a combo box, I have to leave it as an ugly gray color. How sad!!!

Whereas, when designing outside of dataverse, everything is possible. How can we produce quality apps if we are not allowed to control the design?

Does anyone have any idea?

Thanks in advance

Hi @Mo_Islam,

Based on the issue that you mentioned, do you want to know why the PowerApps for Teams has design elements limitations?

Actually you could switch the classic mode as following steps:

Go to Settings icon and select Experimental tab, enable the Classic controls.

Then you could design your Combo Box as you expext:
