Hi fellow Gliders, In pages, what’s the difference between “Main” and “Current” when choosing how to open a Form / Edit Screen / Detail Screen? ![Screenshot 2022-06-30 at 09.40.01](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/c/7/c74a099451178c98a6024d0e7ab981687d465fa1.png) ---

If you’re already on the main view (full window), there’s no difference. If you’re in an overlay and select “current”, you’ll stay in the overlay for your next screen, whereas main would close the overlay and show the new screen in the full/main window. ---
