If there is a better way to do this, please let me know, I'm very open to a better way.Īctually, with some of the changes in PowerApps, (there are still some issues with flexible height galleries), I had to change my approach, but what I've settled on seems to consistently work, regardless of the platform it was running on. While this still is not a perfect substitute for the Gallery control not REALLY allowing for a flexible size (which it arguably SHOULD do) it does go a long way. And lastly, if you have a Separator line, say Separator1, you'd want to set its Y value to Max( HtmlText1.Height, Gallery1.TemplateHeight ).If you wanted to do this in a Slider that is within the gallery (letting the user set the individual slider to the size of that row), you could (instead of ThisItem.MyHeight) use * 10 or something. Probably is a way around this, but doesn't matter to me.Īlso note that there are many ways to specify the height of the line. Note: Even though we set padding to 0, it appears that PowerApps will still make the height of the HtmlText1 control to itself be 5 pixels more than the length of the line. Since the HtmlText1 control has Auto height On, the size of HTML 1 will change based on the length of the line. This will create HTML to draw a vertical line 1 pixel wide and "ThisItem.MyHeight" pixels high. ""(notice the single and double quotes in the above). Now the "magic" here is in the HtmlText setting, so set HtmlText1.HtmlText to:.Height: Gallery1.TemplateHeight (note: this could be any size you want to be the MINIMUM height, but setting it to this will allow you to drag the template size to this minimum) Padding: Left: 0, Bottom: 0, Right: 0, Left: 0 Set the following on HtmlText1:Īuto height: ON (IMPORTANT - and note I've seen PowerApps turn this off automatically sometimes, not sure why, so check it) Add an "HTML text" control to your gallery - I'll call this HtmlText1.There are other ways to do this (ie: value of a control within the gallery itself - ie: a slider that would allow the user to dynamically change it, resizing each row on the flow) - however, this depends on your usage. So if I have 3 rows and want the first to be 10 pixels high, the second 20, and the third 30, I would just add these to the table. In Gallery1 add a column to what you have in Items, that will represent the height you want for each individual row.Let's say your gallery is called Gallery1. So I got to thinking that if the HTML Text control also works with Auto Size (it does), perhaps one could use this by using HTML to create a variable sized (to the pixel) vertical line. And now way to use this to really specify the height of the individual gallery item at a pixel level. I've seen some examples where people have used the Label control (making the text invisible) as a way to dynamically size each row (by adding more text in it), however, this was a bit quirky for me. The only controls with "auto height", which this functionality relies on, is the label control and HTML Text control. Press the mouse button and move downward to select the rest of the cells in the column (see image).So the flexible height gallery control is very limited in usefulness out of the box. ♦ If the table does contain one or more header rows, place the cursor inside the top data row until you see a smaller angled arrow. Alternately, you can right-click in any cell in the column and choose Select, then Column from the right-click menu. When a black downward arrow appears, click to select (highlight) the column as shown in the image below. ♦ If there are no rows that contain column headings, hover the cursor at the top of the column. Make sure that the Home tab on the Word ribbon is selected. Don't miss our Important Notes about Numbering Word Tables in the last section. For both methods, we'll first select the column of data and then select the numbering format. There are two ways we number rows in a Word table: Create a numbers-only column, or number a column with data. Read our disclosure policy to learn more. ○ This tutorial contains affiliate links.
