    Testing Online Connectivity in PowerApps
    Testing Online Connectivity in PowerApps
    April 12, 2019 Apr 12, 2019 04/12/19
    Developer Support
    This post will walk through testing the Connection.Connected property in your PowerApps. If you are building a PowerApp with offline capabilities, then it becomes very important to test whether the device has an active internet connection. The sensor function Connection.Connected can be used to test for connectivity – if true, you are connected, false not so much. A common scenario is to check the result of this function in an OnSelect formula. If connected, write or submit to a live data source, if disconnected, write to local collection for submittal later.

    PowerApps Reusable Components
    PowerApps Reusable Components
    April 6, 2019 Apr 6, 2019 04/6/19
    Developer Support
    In this post, I’ll show you how to create reusable canvas components for your PowerApps. For this example, I’m going to create a control to display today’s date, visualized as one of those daily tear-off calendars you might have seen at some point on someone’s desk. Since the component will be reusable on multiple screens, I’ll add properties to the control to set the data and visual configurations. I’ll also show how to use relative sizing to scale the controls when the component is resized, and how to scale font sizes as well.

    PowerApps Design – Create a Digital Alarm Clock Display
    PowerApps Design – Create a Digital Alarm Clock Display
    April 1, 2019 Apr 1, 2019 04/1/19
    Developer Support
    In this post, we’ll look at how to use SVG images and some formulas to create a digital alarm clock style display in PowerApps. This is going to involve some image manipulation, so I’ll use one of my favorite free vector programs, Inkscape, to create SVG files that can be used in the clock display. I’ll also be using a free-for-commercial use digital clock font for this example (thanks to the author).
