How to show how many items I'm viewing

[NCD]

I am making an inventory app, and would like to know how many items I have/ viewing when I'm filtering how can I do this?

Hi @NCD 

This is not possible directly, unless using a workaround with a filter using a slice.

@Aurelien 

Thank you.

I would like to give it a try, how exactly would I filter this?

You can try this:

or this (same idea)

https://www.appsheet.com/templates/Allow-the-user-to-filter-a-view-based-on-a-form?appGuidString=912...

Based on these mechanisms, you will need to create a virtual column that will count the number of items that match your conditions.

The expression will be:

COUNT(yourSliceFilterName[yourKeyColumn])
