Blocking a User From Selecting Another Gallery Item Before Saving Changes - Help!

[PowerAppsHori]

I'm building a canvas app. I'm trying to accomplish 3 things:

1. Highlight fields that have been changed prior to saving changes (Link to resource I used)
2. Warning/blocking a user they can't select another item in the gallery before saving changes (Link to resource I used)
3. Save Button saves changes and updates the gallery 

1 and 2 work fine. I am able to highlight fields if they've been updated, and I can block a user from selecting another gallery item. I used the resources linked above to walk me through how to do those. It's item 3 that is really messing me up.

Let me provide some more details about my app:

• I use Shane Young's method of setting the variable varRecord as the gallery's ThisItem OnSelect property
• The Gallery's Item property has code for a search box, sorting and filter dropdowns
• My Save button patches 9 forms together to a SharePoint Online List

Important Note: For some reason, when I click the Save button to submit my changes, it doesn't refresh, reset or update the Gallery. So to trick the app into doing so, my Save button patches the forms together and resets the Gallery filters and sorts by modified. A successfully submitted popup appears with an OK button and that OK button has additional steps that resets the Gallery and selects the first item in the Gallery. So basically I'm forcing it to order the gallery by modified date (which puts that item at the top) and then selecting the 1st item in the gallery to show the saved changes. I couldn't figure out any other way to do this. I'm mentioning it because it may be relevant.

Now having said all that, item #3 listed above is messing me up. I have code blocking a user from selecting another Gallery item. However, if I submit and then click the OK Success button, I get the warning message that I can't select another Gallery item. Not only that, the fields I changes still are highlighted like I didn't save my changes. This then locks me out of even selecting the Gallery item that's already still showing as selected in the Gallery. To combat this, I added a button that resets all forms. If I click the reset button, the error stops, but in order for my changes to appear, even though the Gallery item shows as selected, I have to click on that Gallery item again to see the changes. 

What am I doing wrong? Can anyone help me? Thanks!

Ok I figured it out. It had to do with how I was submitting my Patched forms. I originally had my code do this:

Patch(DATA SOURCE, GALLERY.Selected, Form1.Updates, Form2.Updates, Form3.Updates)

However, I needed to set them to my varRecord variable that I mentioned from Shane Young. Changing the Save Button to:

Set(varRecord, Patch(DATA SOURCE, GALLERY.Selected, Form1.Updates, Form2.Updates, Form3.Updates)) 

Solved my issue. Now it updates the Gallery, I don't have to use the OK success button anymore to refresh it and it doesn't kick up the error that I can't select another item because I don't have saved changes.
