Awesome! It is all of these little functions that make working with Power Apps so much easier. Just have to solve the common proble for most people, "You don't know, what you don't know" 🤩
As always, great summary of many of the functions used on a daily basis. I often user Len() to control font sizes when I have limited space (especially is galleries when displaying variable length fields). i.e., If(Len(varrecord.Description>40,12,14)). Real estate on the screen always seems to be an issue. Thanks again for all you do for the developer community!
Len is great for creating "character counters" in apps. I create a lot where there are multi-line text fields with a character limit and it's really helpful to include (above or below the field) something that says "xx characters out of yy" where the xx is the len formula pointing at the field and yy is the text field's limit.
Great video. Love the inclusion of String Interpolation. String interpolation is known as formatted string literals (f strings) in Python. I find it better when building large text/HTML blocks with lots of dynamic injections, because it looks cleaner. For simplistic tasks, my first love was Excel, and therefore, & all the way.
@@ShanesCows haha rocking what? Yep I use this avatar for a lot of profile stuff and test data lol I do got a nice ai art of me almost looks real. Should switch that lol
wow I learned a lot from this! I didnt know most of this functions.

Just a note, watching this on a Tuesday, at random. Keep up the good work Shane!
Those darn random Tuesdays 🤣 Thanks
Thanks Shane. That String Interpolation bit was new to me, and the rest was a worthwhile refresher
That was also my first go at String Interpolation. 😎 I see how it is faster but it just doesn't come out of my brain that way.
@@ShanesCows same, muscle memory prevents me from ever using it. We aptly named it dollarstring because Interpolation is too difficult to say!

Awesome Tim, I have only done the gallery thing once but it would have been a good idea to include. 🤩
Another great didactic review ! Thx u Shane !!
Happy to help. Have a great week. 😎
These videos are great!
Thank you!
Excellent! Thanks, Shane!
Happy to help Wayne 😎

I like it! 👍

Thank you Shane.
Appreciate the support.
love this vid approach Shane
Thanks. Guess I will have to do more. Have a great week my green friend.
@@ShanesCows Yes, please continue these Power-Effects-function-based videos! They really break it down in a comprehensible way.
I'm literally just watching this on a random Tuesday. Why you gotta call me out like that? 🤣
Because I know you Collin and you needed reminded. 🤣
Didn’t realize text interpolation was out. JavaScript developers will love that lol
As much as I love the cat in glasses avatar you are rocking? 😻

String interpolation is the same as in python. Python uses f while it's $ in PowerApps.
Good to know, thanks.
