Keep menu component selected for related screens.

I have created an app that utilizes a navigation menu.

Currently, when the user selects an item in the menu, it navigates to the screen, and the gallery item gets highlighted to indicate the current screen as shown here:

In the app itself, I have created a collection that creates the component's gallery values:

Now, when I hit the + Add button above my data table, it will navigate me to the Quotas.Form screen. I want that Quotas.Form screen to highlight the Quotas icon:

How would I be able to accomplish this dynamically, so that if I create even 50 sub-pages, the component gallery will fill the parents' icon?

Hi @bfernandez

The navigation screen highlights the current screen from the ones configured in the collection that you created. Your Quotas.Form screen is not part of the navigation, therefore you won't be able to set the highlight when you are on that specific screen.

Hi @chsanche,

So I implemented a small fix that makes it work for one screen at a time as shown below:

Now, I need the ability to add multiple screens to the ChildScreen, but realized I could not do that using nested tables, lists, or anything of that manner (i.e. If(App.ActiveScreen in ThisItem.ChildScreen, ColorFade)) because it is a single record. Is there another way I could specify all those screens that belong to the parent?

Can this be explained a little more, For me, I have craeted a navigation bar having buttons in it, on click of respective button i am able to navigate to desired page. But my problem is, i am not able to show the button highlighted because it is not a regular screen button but a component button.
