Same issue here:

> Hi, I have a problem navigating from one screen to another in my app [Selvarealeapp.glideapp.io](http://Selvarealeapp.glideapp.io); this is a paid app so I’d like to solve the issue before delivering the final version. The home screen has buttons created as images (see screen 1) . My customer wants a navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. Now say I want to go to “Agriturismo “ screen tapping the button on the screen, as you can see, I get the screen but the icon on the navtab remains grey whilst the home icon remains…

Methinks you should be using different sheets for each tab. I suspect you’ve got one sheet and are sorting Men / Women on each Tab. I suspect you need a new sheet and pull across selective data.

@JackVaughan just posted this video recently and it’s probably worth a good watch given how well it walks through some unofficial best practices and useful options in setting your app up.

This what you mean? If so, link to screen action is your friend. 🙂

If not - please describe a little more what you’re trying to do.

My requirements is that when user clicks " search for men " button then the "Men " tab must be highlighted & should get the below screen
