Drag and Drop between PCFs (Canvas Apps, Custom Pages, Model-Driven Forms)

I love the questions that challenges me. One of the latest ones, was about drag&drop inside a Custom Page or a Canvas App. I know about the Power Drag Drop PCF created by Scott Durow, which created a great way to easily drag and drop between collections. But I needed a little more like a...

Optimized Fetching of Related Records inside Power Apps Grid Customizer PCF

I've wrote a few blogs about the (Preview) Power Apps Grid customized control: a way to host PCFs right inside the grid. The last one in that direction was about fetching related records.

Editable Dataset PCF: New SDK Methods

Last week I was just browsing to PCF sdk, in order to post a link for an answer in the Power Apps Community Forum, and I've landed to "EntityRecord". I had the feeling that something was different, so I had a look to the methods available there: Wait.... What...? Can we change and save with...

Side Panes & Custom Pages – Implement a Shopping Cart in MDA

I wanted to have look to the new announced Side Panes in model-driven apps. I've read some blogs, but until I don't try things out, I don't have the feeling that I really know what's about. It's still a preview, but maybe my test will help you get a feeling about what's possible... and get...

Why is my PCF not in the list?

Did this ever happened to you: you’ve developed a PCF, uploaded it, but when you want to customize it for a control you don’t find it in the list? At this point you might be a little lost because you don’t get much information from your environment. I'll describe the cases I’ve noted until now....

Goodbye HTML Web Resources…

Don’t worry, the HTML web resources for model-driven are not deprecated. I just don’t believe that I will ever make new ones again.  But there is that old problem of ClientGlobalContext deprecation. The ClientGlobalContext is an aspx site which we used to include in every HTML web resource in order to get access to information...
