Possible improvement Is it possible: when you click on the back button, you go back to the line you clicked on before? ---

First, I click on a line to see the details. And then I click on return, and I want to go back to the line where I clicked details. It’s like going back on a normal web page but it doesn’t go back to the first line. ---

When you say “to the line you clicked on before”, do you mean going to a “focus” state on the clicked line, in a collection? ---

Yes, that’s right, I want to return to the state where I clicked before. ---

It’s a widely requested feature but no indications it’s being worked on. ---

Agree - It is very annoying/poor design to have to scroll down the web page to find where you were when you clicked on the item. Especially with a list of a few dozen items or a large dashboard. I put this in as a request (maybe there is another one out there) and why it only has 4 votes is beyond me because many, many people have complained about this.
