InlineView diasapears when removing slice update mode "add"

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A

Hi community,

as soon as i remove the update mode “add” from a slice, the slices inline view disappears.

This is the SELECT Statement to filter the inline items regarding the values collected in EnumList Field,

this works as expected (except that the inlineview counts zero Items - but this is not the main problem)

Update Mode including “add” does show the items in InlineView correct. here you can also see the issue that the counter is not showing 2

Any Update Mode without “add” (also “read only”)

As you can (not) see, the InlineView below “Quartal” Field is gone.

My target is to set the slice to be read only.

Does anybody have suggestions?

thank you in advance!

I would call this unexpected behavior; I have no explanation for it. Consider engaging AppSheet Support for help with this.

OK,will contact appsheet Support…

I Wonder If this behavior changed recently, because i found Others doing this previously with success.

Thanks you so far

Support solved the problem. In my select expression i’ve split a list into a list which causes the issue. here is the full answer:

As we can see, you have used an expression “SELECT(Anhang_Public_ro[ID],IN([ID],SPLIT([_THISROW].[Anhang],”,“)))” in your virtual column [Beilagen], this is causing this particular issue.> > This behavior is displayed because the expression used by you is returning an empty list due to [_Thisrow] being used, since [Anhang] is already a list then passing it directly without SPLIT() would work smoothly. Also, changing the update mode was displaying the data because it was an empty list displayed, that is why the count was shown as 0. But as soon as “ADD” was enabled it made the inline view ready to get populated that is why it was displayed.> > So, please try changing the expression which would resolve your issue and if you face any further issues please feel free to contact.> > Thanks,> > AppSheet support team
