{How to } turn on Microsoft Modern Controls for designing Canvas Apps

Hello Everyone,

Today i am going to share preview feature which can be leveraged to design the Canvas Apps.

So let's get's started.

Microsoft recently released new feature which can be used and give your feedback to Microsoft before the new feature used for Production use.

Microsoft Modern Controls:  new set of controls these can be used to designed to focus on accessibility, usability and performance that makes them visually appealing.

How to enable them if this feature is available in your region.

Open www.Make.Powerapps.com

Click on create and then click on a Blank Canvas App 

A new Canvas App screen will be displayed to and then you want to check whether the modern controls are enabled in your region.

Click on the Insert tab on the Navigation menu and check whether the Modern Controls are displayed under the Mix Reality and if it is not displayed on that area and then check on the Settings area.

A new pop will appear on the screen and click on the upcoming features, then turn on the "Try out modern controls".

Then close the pop up and head over to the Insert tab and click on it and then check whether the Modern Controls present under the " Mixed Reality" as Modern Controls and expand it and you will see the modern contorls.

 If you want to test some of the controls then click on the control, for example "Button" and on the right hand side you can see the screen properties, advanced and ideas tabs you can check what you can do with the properties.

I hope this helps.
