Usage

Basic implementation

cmpMyTable.Items: YourDataSource
cmpMyTable.Width: Parent.Width
cmpMyTable.Height: 600
cmpMyTable.ViewMode: "table"  // "table", "card", or "list"

View mode toggle

// Enable view toggle (Table / Card / List)
cmpMyTable.ShowViewToggle: true
cmpMyTable.ViewMode: "table"  // Default view

// React to view changes
cmpMyTable.OnViewChange:
    Notify(
        "Switched to " & cmpMyTable.SelectedViewMode & " view",
        NotificationType.Information
    )

// Read current view
Set(varCurrentView, cmpMyTable.SelectedViewMode)

Context menu items

cmpMyTable.EnableMenu: true

// Note: ItemIconSvg / ItemIconColor are reserved and not currently rendered
// (the native TabList menu shows text labels only)
cmpMyTable.ContextMenuItems: Table(
    {ItemKey: "view",   ItemDisplayName: "View",   ItemIconSvg: "<svg .../>", ItemIconColor: "60,60,60,1",   ItemEnabled: true, ItemVisible: true},
    {ItemKey: "edit",   ItemDisplayName: "Edit",   ItemIconSvg: "<svg .../>", ItemIconColor: "60,60,60,1",   ItemEnabled: true, ItemVisible: true},
    {ItemKey: "delete", ItemDisplayName: "Delete", ItemIconSvg: "<svg .../>", ItemIconColor: "248,113,113,1", ItemEnabled: true, ItemVisible: true}
)

cmpMyTable.OnMenuItemSelect:
    Switch(
        cmpMyTable.SelectedMenuItem.ItemKey,
        "view",   Navigate(ViewScreen, None, {Item: cmpMyTable.SelectedItem}),
        "edit",   Navigate(EditScreen, None, {Item: cmpMyTable.SelectedItem}),
        "delete", Remove(DataSource, cmpMyTable.SelectedItem)
    )

Status & priority configuration

// StatusConfig is a Table — add any status row and the default catches the rest
cmpMyTable.StatusConfig: Table(
    {StatusKey: "in progress", Background: "219,234,254,1", TextColor: "30,64,175,1"},
    {StatusKey: "completed",   Background: "212,244,221,1", TextColor: "15,81,50,1"},
    {StatusKey: "on hold",     Background: "254,243,199,1", TextColor: "146,64,14,1"},
    {StatusKey: "not started", Background: "243,244,246,1", TextColor: "75,85,99,1"},
    {StatusKey: "default",     Background: "240,240,240,1", TextColor: "96,96,96,1"}
)

// PriorityConfig follows the same pattern
cmpMyTable.PriorityConfig: Table(
    {PriorityKey: "high",    Background: "254,226,226,1", TextColor: "185,28,28,1"},
    {PriorityKey: "medium",  Background: "254,243,199,1", TextColor: "146,64,14,1"},
    {PriorityKey: "low",     Background: "220,252,231,1", TextColor: "22,101,52,1"},
    {PriorityKey: "default", Background: "243,244,246,1", TextColor: "75,85,99,1"}
)

Progress bar colors

// SVG-based segmented progress bar (up to 10 segments)
// Requires CompletedSteps (number) and TotalSteps (number) in your data
cmpMyTable.ProgressActiveColor:   "2563EB"   // hex without #
cmpMyTable.ProgressInactiveColor: "E2E8F0"   // hex without #

Theme customization

cmpMyTable.ThemeConfig: {
    container: {background: "255,255,255,1", border: "224,224,224,1", borderThickness: 1, radius: 12},
    header:    {background: "249,250,251,1", border: "224,224,224,1", borderThickness: 2, textColor: "96,96,96,1", fontSize: 11, fontWeight: "Semibold", height: 50},
    row:       {background: "0,0,0,0", hoverBackground: "248,249,250,0.5", borderColor: "240,240,240,1", borderThickness: 1, height: 60},
    card:      {background: "255,255,255,1", border: "229,231,235,1", borderThickness: 1, radius: 12, height: 300, gap: 16},
    list:      {background: "255,255,255,1", border: "229,231,235,1", divider: "243,244,246,1", text: "17,24,39,1", textMuted: "107,114,128,1", radius: 12},
    text:      {primary: "32,32,32,1", secondary: "96,96,96,1", accent: "37,99,235,1", fontFamily: "Segoe UI", fontSizeNormal: 12, fontSizeSmall: 11},
    spacing:   {paddingLeft: 20, columnGap: 10}
}

Properties

Input Properties

Property	Type	Default	Description
`Items`	Table	Sample data	Data source. Progress columns require CompletedSteps and TotalSteps number fields.
`ViewMode`	Text	"table"	Initial view mode: "table", "card", or "list".
`ShowViewToggle`	Boolean	true	Show the 3-button Table / Card / List toggle.
`ShowHeader`	Boolean	true	Show column headers in table view.
`EnableMenu`	Boolean	true	Enable the context menu (⋮) button on rows.
`EnableHover`	Boolean	true	Enable row hover highlight effects.
`ContextMenuItems`	Table	View, Edit, Delete	Menu items: ItemKey, ItemDisplayName, ItemEnabled, ItemVisible. Note: ItemIconSvg and ItemIconColor are reserved and not currently rendered — the native TabList menu shows text labels only (no custom icons or per-item colors).
`StatusConfig`	Table	5 statuses	Table with {StatusKey, Background, TextColor} rows. LookUp matches Lower(StatusKey) to Lower(ThisItem.Status); the "default" row is the fallback.
`PriorityConfig`	Table	4 priorities	Table with {PriorityKey, Background, TextColor} rows. LookUp matches Lower(PriorityKey) to Lower(ThisItem.Priority); the "default" row is the fallback.
`ProgressActiveColor`	Text	"2563EB"	Hex color (without #) for completed progress segments.
`ProgressInactiveColor`	Text	"E2E8F0"	Hex color (without #) for incomplete progress segments.
`CharWidths`	Table	Segoe UI Semibold	Character width lookup table used to size list-view tag pills precisely.
`ThemeConfig`	Record	Light theme	Full theme: container, header, row, card, list, text, and spacing configuration.

Output Properties

Property	Type	Description
`SelectedItem`	Record	Currently selected row/card/list item.
`SelectedMenuItem`	Record	Last selected context menu item (ItemKey, ItemDisplayName, etc.).
`SelectedViewMode`	Text	Current active view mode: "table", "card", or "list".

Events

Event	Description
`OnRowSelect`	Fires when a row, card, or list item is tapped. SelectedItem is populated before this fires.
`OnMenuItemSelect`	Fires when a context menu item is chosen. SelectedMenuItem and SelectedItem both populated.
`OnViewChange`	Fires when the user switches between table, card, and list views.

Implementation

Three view modes

Table view renders rows in a horizontal auto-layout gallery with configurable header. Card view renders responsive cards using WrapCount (1 column under 600px, 2 under 1024px, 3 above). List view renders compact 76px rows with a status-colored icon box, title/ID stack, auto-sized tag pills, and a chevron. All three views share the same Items source and context menus.

Precise tag pill sizing (list view)

List view status and priority tags use CharWidths — a character-level width lookup table for Segoe UI Semibold — to calculate exact pill widths via Sum(AddColumns(Split(...), ...), _w). This eliminates fixed-width truncation without requiring PowerFx MeasureText.

Context menus

Built with the TabList modern control for reliable flyout behavior. Menu items support custom SVG icons, RGBA color strings, and individual enabled/visible flags.

Progress bars

Segmented SVG progress bars render dynamically from CompletedSteps and TotalSteps fields. Table view supports up to 5 segments; card view supports up to 10. Colors are hex strings via ProgressActiveColor / ProgressInactiveColor.

Color system

All colors use RGBA string format ("R,G,B,A") parsed at runtime with Split() and Value(). Status and priority badges resolve colors via LookUp(StatusConfig, Lower(StatusKey) = Lower(Text(ThisItem.Status))) with a Coalesce fallback to the default row — no hardcoded Switch blocks, fully data-driven.

Row selection

Table rows use an invisible button overlay for tap detection, offset past the actions column to avoid interfering with the context menu. List rows use a full-width button overlay. On select, varCT_SelectedItem is set then OnRowSelect fires.

Examples

Context menu actions

OnMenuItemSelect:
  Switch(
    Self.SelectedMenuItem.ItemKey,
    "view",
      Navigate(DetailScreen, None, {
        Record: Self.SelectedItem
      }),
    "edit",
      Set(varEditMode, true);
      Set(varEditRecord, Self.SelectedItem),
    "delete",
      Remove(DataSource, Self.SelectedItem)
  )
