Thank you @LuSoMe .

Do you, or anyone, know how to manually remove such dependency on a DataCardValue control?
I find it a bit of an overkill to have to delete the field (but if that fixes for now, so be it 😊 )

Hi @JDNewk ,

 

Make sure you unlock the control to be able to change its properties.

You could do that by clicking the ellipsis for the control in the TreeView (in your screenshot the in the Date Loan Start date picker), or from the Advanced tab on the RHS panel after you've selected the control on your form.

Hi @Christi4n2 @JDNewk ,

 

Can you please open separate topics for your questions? It makes it much easier to address the issues and for other to read in case they run into similar issues later. Like that you are not only helped, but others as well.



Did you like my post? Please give it a thumbs up! Did I resolve your issue? Please click Accept as Solution to close the topic and so other members of the community can find solutions more easily.

Close the field list and reopen it, then move your mouse over the field in the list to make the 3 dots appear (they are not visible otherwise).
I agree, there seem to be a glitch where these 3 dots become not available after a while when the Field list is opened for too long 🤷‍

Not sure about the drag and drop. It's working my end (i.e. not able to reproduce this issue).

Hi @BCBuizer ,

 

I thought I was replying to questions in the topic "Build a Canvas App for a school library", but yes looking at my replies now, it does look messy and out of place 😅 This is my first time posting in these forums, so got to learn the good practices 😊
Will try to raise separate topics when I have questions 👍

Thank you 👍

In the sidebar, click Advanced, and then click the padlock to be able to edit the field's properties.
