Any suggestions? I have no idea. Everything looks fine.  
In the first screen the pancil is darker and works. But why?

What is your button pointing to? I assume a link to screen action?

You mean the yellow button in the first view. Show form is the button action.

Glide and my Google Sheet is not sync at the moment. Perhaps this is the problem.
