Search bar - dataview list?

Hi,

I try to create a automatic search bar for a dataview list, but can get it to work. I have followed this tutorial https://community.thunkable.com/t/making-a-search-bar/60939 but compared with the tutorial I assume that I need to “Set data_viewer_List_Wrapper” instead of “Text_item for List_viewer”. Any ideas why this don’t work?

Your green Set block is outside of the loop. You can’t use a loop index variable (i) outside of a loop.

I have moved the green Set block inside the loop but nothing happens, same as before, all rows are shown.

Your tempList variable needs to be a list of Data Viewer List component IDs. Is it? I’m guessing it isn’t. But you can get the block you need from the Any Component drawer. It will provide a list of all DVLs in your screen/group etc.

Perhaps you’re following this? Conditional Formatting of a Data Viewer List (aka "Painting the DVL")

Also, I feel like there was a known issue with using DVL wrappers but I’m not finding it at the moment.
