Bug? with 1.0.17.0

[Marcus Khoo]

Not sure if this is a bug or not. I want to use vLookup as a facility to “Clone” a list item so an existing list item becomes a template for a new one.

I am using the “New” button and then setting default fields on the newly created one as necessary.

Ideally I’d like to show ZERO items in the vLookup but if I set the item count to 0 it never resolves the table. The functionality I want works OK if I set the count to 1 or above but ideally I’d like to use the “New” button as a cloning mechanism.

If this is not a bug, can “0” be a Feature Request please?
Thanks

I suggest you instead just set a filter that will not return any items – like this:

Id eq 0

Regarding the other issues you have reported – I’m almost ready fixing them, but it might be a day or two until I have it tested and published.

Good idea!

Wonderful news about the new release too. 😀

I tried your Filter idea but it seems like vLookup always is epecting something –
otherwise it just shows a spinning disk forever..

Reporting back:
I did get it working with
Title eq ”

But I then get a message:
“There are no items matching this query”

This label can be hidden using custom css. Please note that I will change the ID of this item in the upcoming release because I had an ID starting with a number (and that doesn’t work properly with document.querySelector) – I forgot to change this ID when I addressed the issue in v1.0.15.0.

When you get the new version you can add this to your custom css (change the ID part to match the number in the ID in your vLookup config panel):

#vLookup_empty_20386850067344842{
  display:none;
}
