Home item in Sidenav

This may be a dumb question - but how do you add a “home” link in the side nav? If a user gets “too deep”, I want a quick way to go back to the home tab instead of hitting back. My home page is a “details view” and would rather not have to recreate it.


I can’t think of a great way to do this at the moment. It would be great if we could assign an action to tabs themselves, eg: click a Home tab in the menu and the action is navigate to the lone Home tab outside of the menu.

I guess you could always place a floating action Home button on every details screen of that Home Screen’s sub pages with a custom action of 10 Go back actions? Overkill and it might not fit with your UI, but it would work.

Thanks @Robert_Petitto - I agree, it would be nice to have an action associated with a tab instead of it assuming that you want to open another view. I will probably just duplicate the details view

Is there anyway to duplicate components across screens?

There isn’t…we’ve asked for that, too.

I’ve done exactly this in one of my apps and it works perfectly
