Hi. I am trying to use the “Link to Screen” feature to have buttons on my homepage, similiar to the example of the Glide App. I have the screens created that I want to link to, but I don’t understand how to connect the buttons. I looked it up in the help forum, but the behavior is not the same as what’s shown here: [Glide Docs](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/reference/actions/link-to-screen)

Specifically, I am not seeing where I can choose what sheet I want to use for the links.

Thanks for any assistance,  
Pam

Hi, if I understand it correctly all you have to do is change your button action to “Link to screen” and then a dropdown will appear to select the sheet you want.

Nope- it only lets me choose from the fields for the current sheet I am using- not linking to “other screens” created from other pages. I think I should be able to link to any screen, such as ones I’ve already created.

Your action is ‘Open as Link’. You need to change it to ‘Link to Screen’.
