I am making an app that has a form view, I would like to insert texts, urls, images and videos to help the user fill it out. I found that the proper way is to use the “Show” type, but it never works and the documentation is always showing how it was done in the old AppSheet layout.
I create the column and select the type “Show”, I go to edit the column, in the details section of the type I select “text” and in the content I write anything, but the text always appears with the equal symbol before it (ex: = John Doe).
If I select the url category and inform the url in the content, the hyperlink is broken and redirected to “https://www.appsheet.com/start/=[url that I placed in the content]”. If I select an image or video it never works either, probably for the same reason as the url category.
Could you help me, please? I believe this is the only method for me to personalize and put tips on my form.
What is the notation for Content in text and URl?
It would be easier to get an answer if you attach a screenshot.
Hi, Takuya! Thanks.
See below:
Also doesn’t work if put the text/url between quotes or use a function.
It’s a wonder. In my environment, everything shows up.
How is it displayed in your environment?
I am creating a Show column in VC.
Also, the URL and Image are enclosed in double quotation marks.
The image just doesn’t work:
(Created with a VC also):
The URL show like that:
The VC:
You tried that within a form view?
Also the text shows up like: =“Hello world!”.
It shows up properly if I don’t write anything on the content and put “Hello World!” in the VC name, but that doesn’t work with urls/images/videos.
I also did not understand. Regardless of how I try, it never works.
