Horizontally Scroll A Large Power Apps Gallery

So you have a lot of data to display but the screen in Power Apps isn’t large enough. My friend Ronald Sease recently showed me how to create a gallery in Power Apps that you can scroll horizontally. It’s a simple but powerful solution utilizing a horizontal container and a vertical gallery.

Demo

Scrollable Gallery

Instructions

First add a Horizontal container to your screen.

Add Horizontal Container to Screen

Set the LayoutOverflowX property on the Horizontal container.
LayoutOverflowX = LayoutOverflow.Scroll

Add a Vertical gallery within the horizonal container you created.

Add Vertial Gallery to Screen

Set the following properties on the Vertical gallery.

  • ShowNavigation = true (this isn’t required but the navigation buttons make it much easier to move up and down the list when the up/down scrollbar is off the screen.)
  • Height = Parent.Height (if you are using the Show Navigation option then set this to Parent.Heigh - 20 so that the navigation buttons are not covered up by the scroll bar.)
  • LayoutMinWidth = 1000 (This value needs to be larger than the width of the horizontal container for the scrollbar to appears. Choose a size will allow you to fit all of you gallery fields in the template.)

Now we have a gallery that we can scroll left to right to see more data.

Let’s finish up designing our Gallery.

First let’s make sure the seperator goes all the way across. Change the following property on the seperator.
Width = Parent.LayoutMinWidth

Next let’s turn on the gallery loading spinner so our users know when the control is loading more data. You can do this by clicking on the Gallery control and setting the following property.
LoadingSpinner = LoadingSpinner.Data

Finally add any additional fields you want to show and update the height of the gallery template to your needs.

IMPORTANT NOTE The Power Apps editor gets somewhat confused as to the placement of items after you have scrolled so in order to move the components around on the gallery template you will need to utilize the X/Y Position values on the controls.

      Put the header inside the container as well. You'll need to change the container to vertical so you can put the header above, and make sure the gallery's "AlignInContainer" property is set to start.

    Drugs enter your bloodstream and, as a result, somehow be embedded in your hair, where they remain until the hair is removed from your body. However, proper and regular use of the remedies mentioned above can definitely help you in reducing the drug toxins. Despite their scientific validity, many people are skeptical of the accuracy of hair drug tests. You will be relieved to learn that hair follicle drug tests are the highly effective method that yields accurate results. Hair tests, in general, can detect drugs for a longer period than urine drug tests. Hair drug tests can detect drugs in your system up to ninety days after being taken, whereas urine tests can only discover drugs up to a week after their use. Visit: https://www.urineworld.com/

    Most of us Android phone users keep installing and trying different applications and games from the Google Play store on a regular basis. These applications are installed automatically and just appear on our phones when we click the install button of asphalt xtreme hack apk. However, there is another way to install applications and games, and even live wallpaper on your phone without using an application store like Google Play.

    If you use a lot of galleries in your Power Apps, you may have noticed that it can get tedious sometimes. Microsoft Lobe is a free desktop application provided by Microsoft which can be used to classify Images into labels. Then I can add another one and I'm going to use a gallery to display the social media icons at the top.

Add User As Local Administrator On Domain Controller

I recently was settting up a new Microsoft SharePoint 2010 machine and had promoted the machine to a domain controller before creating my SharePoint admin accounts.  I needed to add several of my accounts to the local Administrators group.  Unfortunately after you promote a server to a domain controller you can no longer access the GUI for Local Users and Groups.  Instead I had to use the command line to add the users. Open a command promt using the "Run as administrator" function and then run the following command. net localgroup Administrators /add {domain}\{user} Note: do not include the {} brackets.

Windows Server 2008R2 VMs Shut Down After 1 to 2 Hours

Image
When created a lab environment to test ADFS 2.0 I utilized the Windows 2008R2 VM baselines distributed by Microsoft.  After a few days I was told that I had to activate.  The VMs included a 180 day license for use but I didn't feel like adding another network adapter into Hyper-V to connect them to the internet.  I started having issues though where the servers would shut down every hour or so.  I though that maybe there was a memory issue and Hyper-V was shutting them down in order to free up RAM.  Turns out that if Server 2008R2 is not activated it automatically shuts down after a period of time.  After connecting the server to the internet and activating them the problem went away. Finally the madness of the unknown shut downs has ended :)
