Hi, I’m trying to configure a category separation action, and I can’t. It’s like the system is stuck; it’s not loading the label according to my Excel format. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/0/5/054a42cb46a1422f50146b52a3b11d45f89aac01.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/7/0/7049f297035da2b68fe43811092a6dff28d54cc5.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/4/e4af39a3e7ab0ded851a277815eeecc8d71eae40.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/a/4/a4db016f45526451b2a9cfba07abcac5676708b0.png) Could you please help me? I don’t know how to fix it. ---

Is that screen connected to an existing row? If you are filtering the menu detail screen or it’s not connected to a row for some other reason, that can cause components to be hidden if they are referring to columns in that menu table, because there is no associated row for the components read or write values. The other thing to check is if you have a visibility condition on the choice component. It’s possible that you could have a condition that hides the component. A separate word of advice…If that choice component is going to be used by multiple people at the same time, I would make sure to use a user specific column to store the selected choice instead of a column from your spreadsheet. Otherwise it’s going to be a terrible experience for the users when everyone else is changing their selection. ---

I want to make each category display a specific number of products, sorted by category. But I want to make it so that when I select a category (there are 8 categories in total), I only see the products within that category. Is that possible? ---

When you display a collection, have you gone to the options tab (on the right) and configured the in-app filter (applied to the column with your categories)? ---

I was able to fix that problem; I don’t know what I did, but it’s fixed now. Now I have another problem. They tell me that the purpose of all this is to create a sort of shopping cart for orders, but using formulas in Glide, it adds up everything that’s pending, and I don’t want that. They tell me to add a filter to the order total. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/a/f/af339c9cc3d8e04fcba719fa59353950b23298b3.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/2/d/2d230e949007242497e2de313f219ceeaad45d3d.png) Could you show me how to add the filter because I have to put it so that it filters? Configure it like this: Order\_Status is Pending. ---

But okay 👍 > [@Df\_1](#): > > it adds up everything that’s pending, and I don’t want that. They tell me to add a filter to the order total. Rather than set the filter in the layout editor, you probably need to filter in the data editor. You can set filters in the query column. ---

Buenas, Has considerado utilizar las tablas nativas de Glide? ---

I performed the multiplication by items and the total sum using the Glide data. ---

But I want to make it so that when I select a category (there are 8 categories in total), I only see the products within that category. Is that possible? Yes, as long as you establish a parent-children relationship between the category and the products, then you’re good to go. In the details view of the category, you just need to display a collection of the related products. > [@Df\_1](#): > > Could you show me how to add the filter because I have to put it so that it filters? Configure it like this: Order\_Status is Pending. As Nathanael suggested, use a query first, you can filter by the order status there, then rollup on top of that query. ---
