GA announcement: 6 additional modern controls in Canvas!
We are pleased to announce a significant milestone in the control’s modernization journey for Canvas. Today, we are announcing the general availability (GA) of the following modern controls: Text, Text input, Number input, Combobox, Date picker, and Form. Utilizing these controls enables creators to enhance their applications with faster, accessible, and modern elements.
Visit overview of modern controls to learn more about all modern controls.
As part of this milestone, we would like to highlight the following:
- Text input has a trigger output property which can be used to control its onChange behavior
- Date picker’s custom format can be achieved by editing the “format” property with a valid date format, i.e. format = “dd/mm/YY”, format = “MM/YY”
- Combobox has a default limit of 800 records when using the dataset directly. However, makers can leverage PowerFX formulas in junction with the control’s searchText property to achieve dynamic searching and filtering on larger datasets, i.e.: Filter(<Dataset>, StartsWith(<Column name>, Combobox.SearchText))
- When a Number input is used standalone (outside of a form), its value will never exceed the max or min boundaries and will always round values to either one of the closest boundaries
We look forward to hearing your feedback and seeing the amazing apps that will be created with these controls!
