RAW Bing Maps PCF Component
Richard A. Wilson is a consultant for Microsoft, and has created some really cool custom components in the past few years. The one I am interested in is his Bing Maps component. It solves an issue I was having in getting April Dunnam's (kind of sort of) similar tutorial to function properly. He has a loose outline of how to implement the component correctly, and a video tutorial that approaches ludicrous speeds on GitHub. I've watched the video a couple hundred times (literally, I cannot overstate the speed of this thing). However, I am still having issues. This is rather deflating, as the component is geared for exactly what I need. In theory, this component plots pushpins on Bing Maps according to latitude/longitude, clusters then into groups based on first location or mean average, displays a brief details dialog on hover of a pushpin, and supplies a link to open the record. His video involves switching to classic view to edit the unmanaged solution by creating a new view, editing a handful of fields, and publishing the changes. When I try to do the same, the fields I have a choice of editing are not the same as what's displayed in the video. With some tweaking in Power Apps by adding in my data source and changing the latitude/longitude to those in said data source, it works very well until I try to open the link for the record. All I get is JavaScript:void(0) in return. Opening the link in a separate tab results in about:blank#blocked. [Note: Just before I left work for the weekend yesterday, I noticed that I could actually edit everything in the solution without switching to classic view, which may make it easier to get the results I need.] I just cannot push through this last issue of opening the record associated with the pushpin. When the component is added to the canvas, it has cards for every single column in my data source. What's curious to me is that the Properties are completely blank, and the Advanced tab has relatively few options to edit.

Yes, I thought it may be something of that nature as well. I've tried it on my work account, and then a mock up on my personal account, in Chrome (both normal and incognito mode) and Edge. All the same result! Perhaps it's something within browsers settings keeping it from opening correctly. I've not attempted to delve far into that possibility. I know it has to be something simple I am missing!

Update: Definitely not the browser settings. 😔 I think I am about to give up on this project unless I can contact this guy directly and ask for explicit step by step instructions on how to get it working properly.
Optimizing Power Apps for Devices
A word of caution… Turning on the experimental setting for device optimization may result in unexpected app behavior! In my case (iOS devices), it would not let users submit a completed form. Haven’t had a chance to delve into the “why” yet, but figured I’d share this with y’all.

Responsive canvass app
I’m a beginner Power Platform developer eager to learn how to create a canvas app that works well on both tablets and mobile devices. Could anyone direct me to the best resources available here at school to achieve this? Thank you!🙏🏼

Hi Alex, and welcome to the community! I'm definitely interested in learning more about the Power Apps market. I've been working with Power Platform at my current job for about a year now. It seems to be somewhat difficult to break into the market being so new to the platform. Any kind of information to help get a leg up would be nothing short of amazing!

Yep, if I am working on something that is giving me fits before clocking out for the day/weekend, it will be on my mind until I clock back into work. Sometimes I'll even break out my personal account at home and mock up something similar to see if I can have a fix in place for the next day!
