I also have filters falling out from Choice Component and they are using AND (but not using the Screen, in my case an element from “User’s”).

I think this is the case for any forms and the new screen filtering options. They don’t seem to have any effect in forms.

It’s a shame…could REALLY use it.

Could you please share the app with me and tell me how to reproduce this? It’s a different problem than the one @Robert_Petitto has here.

I spoke with @Daniel_Sweet about it earlier. Wanted to mention here in case it’s all related (although my issue was not with screens, it was with user’s element). Thank you!

@Deena Dan mentioned it, but he didn’t have the details. Does your problem persist? If so, please let me know how to reproduce.

I cannot reproduce unfortunately. A filter was set for a choice inside a form and it just disappeared. I am 100% positive it was there because the filter was “Company is [user’s] Company” and it was to keep the employees of different companies in a list of only their employees. I tested it yesterday and today when I went to use the form, I was in one company and saw the employees of all companies. I immediately clicked over to check the filter and it was gone. As you know there was recently a bug where filters were deleted when sorting. I was able to identify how it happened then but in this case I cannot. This is a very serious issue. I completely understand the need to replicate but I don’t think that’s possible here. As I mentioned to Dan, this is not the first time it happened in the last week or so. Since I could not be certain before, thinking perhaps I didn’t set a filter, I did not report it. But now that I am 100% sure, I am quite worried. We need to be able to rely on filters so I hope you can recheck everything on your end even if we cannot replicate. I did show Dan exactly where the filter fell out if that was helpful. I also made a video which I can send you in a PM. Thank you!
