[QUOTE="Guzzi, post: 950210, member: 55213"] In the past, we did the backnavigation only by back navigation rules - so same as forward navigation - telling MyFilms what to do, when "back" is selected. We now replaced that mostly with the backnavigation queue, so in most cases, the last state from the navigation queue is used - except in the few rare cases, were that queue is empty and we do NOT want to quit immideately - as those cases we discuss here. [LIST] All handled by back navigation queue, no rules involved. Setting the filter resets the navigation queue - but as you were at "top level", also no back navigation rules were used. We handle both "menu" and "film list" as possible "root nodes"... This is, when back navigation rule today would apply - it would return to root node (film list or menu). [/LIST] Yes, that's what I meant. No difference about always settings. Actually, the reason, we left the backnavigation rules in there for start levels deeper than root nodes is to give the user the possibility to use such start view, but still being able to browse anything from there. If we drop that, user would have to manually choose another view from hidden menu and continue browsing from there. See my comments above. As I said before, I personally have no problem changing it to that - it makes internal handling easier and we can get rid of the backnavigation rules - and thus probably more, that we had to use in the past for all those complicated relations. And users CAN always use menu as start node, if they want easy access to all views etc. - with next feature release the start view can even be set in GUI, so it can be changed "on the fly" :cool: [/QUOTE]
