I already sended message to support about this one, but there many other unstable behavior in pages.
Thanks for response, Jeff!

Hitting a gap in functionality that I feel should be there. Upon Submit form > View Edit Screen.
This works in Glide apps, but not pages. It will actually bring me to the edit screen, but components are missing:

Bug on Collection Action
If you delete a row via the action linked to the collection button, the row disappears correctly from the list, but the button turns off as if it were linked to the ghost of the deleted row (it is no longer linked to the current row).

This bug happens not necessarily on deletion, but also in any other circumstance in which the row is no longer part of the list.

Is it just me, or are there issues with the “On Submit” feature? It works in an app, but when selected in Pages, it’s not doing anything. Maybe I have something setup wrong? The screenshot is from the default build with a new glide table Page. When I click save in the screenshot the stock value does not increment. I expect that it would. Thoughts?

I’ve been playing around with this and I created a form modal where Set Column Values worked, and then I tried the form again and it didn’t work. So, there seems to be issues bigger than just the Increment feature. Or, of course, as things tend to be nine out of ten times, I missed something. :neutral_face:

I have always stayed away from using set columns/increments to modify a row just as I have created it, since Glide may not create the row in time before the set column/increment action is fired.

I think what you can do here is create a number entry, set the default value to 1 and use a visibility condition to always hide it. That value will be submitted alongside other things when Glide creates a new row.

Thanks @ThinhDinh! The way you suggest seems to be safest.

I’m having the same issue on Edit as well. I’m trying to use Set Column Values to set a date (and some other values) like the Special Values components that set the date or user email.

I tested this a few more times and found that everything works like I think it would and passes the values into the Glide Data Editor, but fails to pass the data to the Google Sheet. Then, the blank value of the Google Sheet ends up clearing out the Glide Data Editor (I’m guessing).

I keep wondering if I’m missing something fundamental in how the Set Column Values function works. If it exists under “On Submit” on a form, it should work, right? And, it works for an app, so I’m thinking it is just a little thing that needs ironing out with the new Pages.

I’ve opened a support ticket where, I confess, like here, my wording rambles a little. So, my apologies to anyone reading this, and to the support person who pulls my ticket. :crazy_face:

Update: I found that Set Column Values also doesn’t work for Glide Tables in the edit modal.

In a form, when the switch edit component has a default value set to “On”, the user interface doesn’t show it as on, nor does it pass a true value to the table.

I’m having the same issue. I don’t see the lookup column as an option in any item dropdowns.


Seems like you’re looking up an array, and the table can not show arrays like that. If you want to display it in text form, use a join text column instead.

Try setting your default value to ‘true’ instead of ‘On’ for your switch.

Also, I agree with @ThinhDinh. Lookup arrays can’t be used somewhere that only accepts single values. Usually that means that your relation for the lookup should be a single relation, so the resulting lookup is a single value lookup instead of an array that could potentially hold multiple values.

Thank you @Jeff_Hager and @ThinhDinh, I had this feeling that I was missing something (as most of my problems are things that I am just overlooking.) I have a life that is filled with examples of overlooked things like this.

I’ll have to dig a little deeper into the ‘true’ instead of ‘On’. It seemed that those were values given by Glide. I think it is specific to the form:

Ah, ok. I didn’t know that glide offered on or off as default value options. I take back what I said about that part. :wink: Could be an actual bug with pages.

Interesting. I see this too. Not always, but from time to time. Super-frustrating and confusing, especially if you are new to Glide. I keep thinking it’s been fixed, but then it’s not!

Issue: Text overflows on mobile (iPhone iOS 15.1.1). It would be great if the text can wrap to keep within the container/screen dimensions and prevent unwanted horizontal scroll.

Thanks

Do you have any samples of this that we can test?

Thanks

It happens when the text/string has no spaces. For example a url

I created a quick demo app below. It does happen even if I place within a container.

Demo Page: Link to page

Link to Screen

Issue: The ‘link to screen’ action creates a link to the previous screen, not the current (details view) screen.

Interestingly if you create the same action the link changes but when you open that link the screen is blank.

Interface messages and place holders not showing in Spanish.

It must be a bug, as @david comment that interface messages are automated
