Table Control OnSelect Not Firing When Same Row Is Clicked After Screen Navigation in powerapps

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 38
Hi Community, I am facing an issue with the Table control's OnSelect property in Power Apps Canvas App.
 
Scenario:
  • I have a Table control bound to a Dataverse table.
  • When a row is selected, I navigate to a details screen passing the selected record.
  • On the details screen, I have a back button that navigates me back to the screen containing the Table control.
Problem:
             When I navigate back, the previously selected row remains highlighted/selected. If I click the same row again, the OnSelect does not fire. However, if I click a different row and then come back to the original row, it works as expected.
 
What I Have Tried:
  • Reset(tableControl) — Throws error: "Reset works only for resettable controls." Table control is not resettable.
  • Setting SelectedItems = Blank() — SelectedItems is read-only and throws: "Incompatible types for comparison. These types can't be compared: Table, Blank."
  • CountRows(tableControl.SelectedItems) = 0 — This is a comparison, not an action. Does nothing.
Question:
        Is there a cleaner, official way to reset or clear the selection of a Table control after navigation so that clicking the same row again reliably fires OnSelect?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    There is no official way to reset the Table control’s selection directly.
    As you noted, the Table control is currently defined as a non-resettable control in Power Apps. It lacks a Reset property that can be toggled via variables, a feature common in classic controls but not yet standard for all modern ones.
     
    Best practice:
    • Don’t depend on Table selection state
    • Use a variable-driven selection pattern
    • Or switch to a Gallery control for better control
