Thank you for this Robin, I can see this function getting a lot of use, I've had a play around and it seems you can use a negative margin, it may help if you are trying to pixel perfect a page. Anyway it is so much better than the converted html in onedrive technique. I have a gantt style chart made from 2 overlapping pixel perfect galleries, and I tried to recreate it in html, but the html in the onedrive conversion is pretty limited so I could only create a basic looking chart. Now the chart looks really professional in the pdf page. I did a few tests with the bold problem and I couldn't get it to work either. I tried using labels and tried html text, using also tried creating a with no luck. The same happens with italic or tags, and also underlined, all is stripped from the text. Hopefully an update with fix this. The documentation states it doesn't work with galleries inside galleries, but I did find that using the creators kit details list component within a blank variable height gallery worked with tabular data. Passing a table grouped using groupby to the gallery, and accessing the grouped column in the details list printed out in the pdf ok. Thanks for your video on this, it's been very helpful!

Yeah, figuring out what works in the OneDrive html->pdf is exhausting and pretty limited in the end... Also tried all possible ways to get a bold text in the PDF and didn't succeed :(

@@R2Power one thing that works for me is to use heavier font (i.e. Lato Black) for bold text and a lighter font (i.e. Lato Light) for normal paragraph. That results in a better representation in the PDF 🙂

Super Video, Robin! Viele Dank fürs Teilen. Hast du bei Galleries die über mehrere Seiten auch den Effekt, dass sich der untere Teil einer Zelle mit jeder Seite weiter nach unten verschiebt und sozusagen auf der nächsten Seite oben kommt? Hab auch mal die Gallery in einen Container gepackt, aber das ändert nichts.

Hi Robin, vielen Dank erst mal für deinen Content. Immer eine große Hilfe. Die Einfache PDF Seite funktioniert soweit fehlerfrei in meiner App. Denkst du das mögliche Szenario: Wenn ich mehrere dynamische Positionen habe, die ich immer auflisten will wenn etwas hinzugefügt wird, dass sich die Seiten automatisch anpassen können? Also folgender Use Case: Wenn Inhalt eingetippt in Bemerkungsfeld/ also Feld genutzt --> Dann PDF verlängern. Glaubst du das ist irgendwie realisierbar oder ist das realitätsfern? -Wenn nicht dann Inhalt bis zum eingetippten am besten schrumpfen Vielen Dank schon mal. Liebe Grüße
@R2Power Жыл бұрын
Mit einem vertikalen Container verschieben sich automatisch die Inhalte. Also einfach alles untereinander und den entsprechenden Abschnitt auf Visible (oder nicht) setzen. Das drunter verschiebt sich dann automatisch hoch/runter.

@R2Power Жыл бұрын
Type in values into the X/Y/Width/Height-properties But strange things can happen when you do that (screen jumps to that control when you focus it)
@bzqp2 Жыл бұрын
In my case if I forced the block inside of the container to autosize to the content (HTML text) the container automatically would resize beyond the screen to fit the HTML block. You can also use some other container-type control that is scrollable, like a gallery.

@bzqp2 Жыл бұрын
Oh, I fixed it. Turns out the AutoHeight parameter in my HTML block that I put into a container was set to "false" so its size conformed to the size of the parent container. By changing it to "true" the multi-page PDF displays quite well (sometimes cuts the text in the middle of the line, but it's ok I guess...)

Hallo Robin, Ich möchte unsere Werkzeugliste digitalisieren. Es sind ca. 20st. Werkzeuge welche ich in Sharepoint erfasst habe und in PowerApp in Gallery anzeige. In der Gallery sehe ich das Bild von dem jeweiligem Werkzeug, Die Artikelnummer, Bezeichnung, Menge und und Auswahl: Vorhanden oder Nicht vorhanden.. Die Idee ist, dass wenn wir ein neue Mitarbeiter erhalten, dass der Teamleiter mit dem Powerapp die Liste durch geht und an gibt ob die Werkzeuge vorhanden sind oder nicht. Wenn er das gemacht hat. Soll man wie du hier im Video gezeigt hast in PDF angezeigt werden. Das Blatt muss auch von beiden Parteien unterschrieben werden, in diesem Video hast du es auch verwendet finde ich cool. Dann sollte das PDF per Email weiter gesendet werden. Es wäre sehr schön wenn du ein Video darüber machen könntest. Gruss Ersin
