I want a button from the command line bar to be visible or invisible depending on whether a record has been selected in the lookup field from the main form or not.
If no record has been selected, then the button should be displayed. Otherwise not.
For this problem, I want to use the Power Fx in PowerApps, but I haven't found a command yet, which shows me the content or something like that of the lookup field. Other field data types like text have worked without problems.
With Javascript, I already managed it without problems, but I would like to do it also in PowerFx if that should work.

The records come from the Table Company, where the attribute is Companyname.
Commands where I think they might work:
If([Selected Record];true;false);If(IsBlank([Selected Record]);true;false);If(IsBlankOrError([Selected Record]);true;false);If(IsEmpty([Selected Record]);true;false)
I guess there are 2 scenarios:
The Lookup form control element is a Dropdown with a Selected output property. Then your approach would work like If(IsBlankOrError(DataCardValue1.Selected),true,false)
If your form control element is a ComboBox then you could use If(CountRows(DataCardValue1.SelectedItems)>0,true,false) or the above described IsBlankOrError.

Is there a way to populate a List property on an object being tested under the "new style" test scenario?
I see some "legacy" test cases which seem to achieve this so am wondering if the new style test scenario handles this.
I added the List model to my test case, which enabled me to expand the sub-property on the object, however there is only one field available there, "empty" (boolean). Is there a way to add an object here? If it makes any difference, the model is an external java dependency.
Update
The reason I wasn't able to add the List of objects was because I didn't explicitly import that object dependency into the test. Once you import it you can follow the steps given in the answer below.
It's definitely possible to manage a List property under the Test Scenario Editor.
Please consider the following example: A Book class with a List<String> property named topics.
Creating a new Test Scenario assets, please select the column where you need to add the List property, and in the right part of the editor select the property expanding the Book class, as shown below:
Pressing Insert Data Ojbect button will assign the selected List property to the selected column:
To fill the data in the List property, please double click on the Insert value cell, in the first scenario data row. A popup will appear. Its aim is to fill data inside a collection
To add a value, please press the Add list value link in the bottom part of the popup. Here, you'll be able to fill a single item on the list
Repeat this step for all the items you need to add to the list. When completed, simply press to Save button
The popup will close and you should see the previously selected data cell filled with a label similar to List(2), the number represents the number of the items in the list.
I have read about using VBA to concatenate terms together using VbCrLf; I personally used Ctrl-Enter to create a second line in the caption field in the properties box.
But, after I do my ctrl-enter, it then only shows the first line of my multi-line caption in the datasheet view of my form.
becomes this...
This form is meant to recreate the functionality our owner is looking for from a current excel spreadsheet (the ability to sort on various columns), so I can't just use a report.
Please tell me I'm missing something obvious such as a caption height property value or something. The multiline caption will be very useful to help maintain appropriate column widths for the data.
Whilst you can display multiple lines of content within the datasheet view for a table by increasing the row height of each record, e.g.:
A more appropriate solution might be to use a text box on a form to display the data, where the height of the text box can be predefined in the design of the form, and scroll bars can be displayed:
There is no solution to adjusting column headers in the specific "datasheet" form that I was trying to use. It's a nice quick way that works for 95% of your uses. But, if you need more control (like me and others on the internet) the only solution is to create the form as a "Tabular" form in the form wizard. There are other descriptions of this type of form in Access (just to be confusing).
This is also described as a continuous form likely because that's the form property value toggle when you dive into the details.
It's more work but you have full control over the size, format, etc. of your column headers when creating/designing a tabular form.
While working with Perl and Gtk2, I have to programmatically remove an option from a drop-down (ComboBox). While I'm aware that $combo_box->remove_text ($position) will do the trick in one shot, I need to remove the option based on its name (entered by the user).
I'm unable to find a method that can return the index of an item by its name. Could someone help out?
It's a bit unclear what you mean by "name"; combo box items don't have names. If the combo box is textual, then each item is made up of text, but that text isn't a name. You could have the same string in all items for instance, which would make it very unclear which one you want to delete.
I think you're going to have to implement it youself, by iterating over the combo box's underlying tree model. Then it's up to you if you want to just delete the first match, continue searching to find all of them.
Im trying to implement several rules for a form, based on a selection of some multiple selection list boxes. Im customizing a form for a existing SharePoint list by clicking on "Customize Form" in SharePoint. First of all, the choice fields on the list (multiple selection) are oddly binded in InfoPath:
I cant change the variable's name "Value" and Real Estate Categories should not be a required field. (*)
On one view I have a "Business Unit Purchase" box that is a multiple selection box (choice) and there is a next button. The next button should only be availiable when a selection is made.
So I tried to the following rules for the Next Button:
Rule Type Action:
IF Value (of Business Unit Pruchase) is not blank -> Switch to next view
This works properly, but now i wanted to disable the next button when nothing is the text box was selected, because it makes it more clear to have a selection beofre ist possible to go on. So I tried this:
Rule Type Formatting:
IF Value is blank -> disable this control
This disables the button as wanted when the multiple text box has not any items selected, but after selecting one or more, nothing happens. Is there any reason why this does not work?
Normally when a selection is made, the field "value" of "Business Unit Purchase" should contain one or more strings and therefor should not be blank anymore.
A multiselect list box almost always contains one blank element entry unless it has been manually removed (e.g. via code).
Because of this, the condition Value is blank will almost always be true.
To remedy this, use the dropdown in the Condition builder's field selection dialog to set up your condition as:
All occurrences of Value are blank -> Disable this control
If you do this, the control should be enabled when one or more items are selected.
i have got multi lined text item like gridview in my forms project. i want to select an item and click delete button and the system must delete selected index but i didnt find the perfect function. it's not bind into the database so its not complicated i just want to delete the line from the text item. i tried to find the properties of the current record, i use some of loops but it didnt find the selected item index. does it have "selected item" function like c#, java. Or do i have to create a function to find selected item. which way is the best and how could i do that.
This code may help you(I didn't get a chance to test this) :
GO_BLOCK('Gridview_BLOCK_NAME');
GO_RECORD(record_index);
DELETE_RECORD;
GO_ITEM('block.delete_button');--if you want the cursor back to delete button
