Help with navigation menu from the Creator Kit Nav control

Hello,

I am trying to use the Nav control from the creator kit.

However, I cannot understand how to reset the item selection...

I am adding actions to the onselect property:

Switch( Self.Selected.ItemKey,

/* Action for ItemKey 1 */
"1", Navigate(TrainingListScreen),

....

)

So this works, when I click on the nav menu item 1 it does navigate to the other screen, however, because it is never reset, I am not able to go back to the screen with the nav menu (every time I try it navigates back to the TrainingListScreen as item 1 is selected).

How do you reset the selected item after the action is performed?

Thanks!

Kind regards

Valeria

Do you have the back button on the navigation menu?

@Mira_Ghaly no, I don't, but I have never seen it on the Nav control.
I have found a workaround, nut sure it's the most efficient.
On the Nav control:
SelectedKey : varNavSelected
OnSelect: Set(varNavSelected,Self.Selected.ItemKey);
Switch( varNavSelected,
/* Action for ItemKey 1 */
"1",....)

I have added a hidden "0" ItemKey to the items
And on the Screen "OnVisible" property: Set(varNavSelected,"0")

This resets the selection on the Nav to 0 (hidden item) every time the screen with the Nav Control is shown.

Please chime in if there is a better solution....

Thanks
Kind regards

@ValeriaBreve This is a good workaround. I had the same issue. The documentation is either lacking something else needed or it's just a plain ole bug.
