"Back" button

Post by tom.yatesGAd213 » Thu Jul 19, 2012 5:47 pm

Hi, I am wanting to create a button that will work both on iOS and Android. I simply want it to go to the last card that was viewed. I was wondering whether I have to make something to store the card ID in, in the stack which the button then uses to find the card to go to.
Sorry if thats complicated :)
Thanks!

Does "go recent" not work?

This works both from within a stack and between stacks.

You can certainly load a custom property with pathNames, updated with openCard(s), but I do not think it necessary.

As Craig said:

Yes. And you can know the name of the recent cd like this:

Code: Select all

put the name of the recent cd into tNameRecentCD
