I have a list that opens another view and zooms into the associated location when an item in the list is clicked on. One thing that I want to happen is that when I click the "back" button to return to the main list, the map also returns to the home extent/view. What this would require is for the back button to also be able to 'unselect' the item that was selected in the list. Does anyone know if this is possible? 

here is a link to my experience - if you get a request to log in just press cancel and the only thing that will be missing is the basemap, otherwise you can interact with everything else:

Not sure if this applies, or whethere there is the ability to code an action for them, but if so, I have found one way to "un-select" all in a layer.

Basically, I pass a Select data records action, but, in the conditions, I set two fields that will NEVER be equal.

So,

In this case, when the action fires, all selections in the Post dataset are removed (as OBJECTID will never = PostType).

Anyway, don't know if it will help you, but this is how I have handled "un-selecting" all on an action.

Hi R,

I'm not sure if that will work because I would have to put in the same trigger/action settings as the one that actually selects the data in the framework. I will look into this suggestion though, because it's intriguing.

Wasn't sure if it would help, but threw it out there.

Looking further, not what you need anyway as your selection is getting cleared, and that is what is causing the issue with the attributes names showing in the window.  The info window you have loading shows data for  the selected feature, when you click the popup off, the selection goes away.

See my post in your other thread about this for info on the empty selection thing.

Hi R,

This is a completely separate issue. When someone clicks a property on the list in view 1 and is taken to view 2, and then they click the "back to list" button, the property they had clicked on previously is still selected in the list. I have that configured to be noticeable, but my colleagues want the list to be wiped clear and the map to go back to the home extent when they return to the list in view 1 without them having to press the home button in the map. I don't think this is going to be possible, but it was worth throwing out there to see if anyone knew of any strategies.
