Hi guys, here i came again, i have this project: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/4/b/4b7be7c7f202ce096ad6ee36c9a8861ff9f47ba8.jpeg) All columns have 3 buttons, first button are the background image, second the name and the last the rate from this object… My problem now are when i click in any button mentioned above he need go to another screen, in this screen will have info´s about this object… Like this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/1/b/1b46ba6ec5409d3881a54fb46e378ddc99ed91b5.jpeg) So if you see in the first image, this object is the first on this list… How when i click to see infos about this object the app recognize the object where I clicked and bring the right information to this other screen? ---

Does screen1 tells the second screen that you clicked button #5, as opposed to #1. That is what each button needs to do: gather the relevant reference to put in some app variable “selected\_object”. ---

You save the pertinent data in “app” variables. App variables are accessible in all screens, so that is the easiest way to make them talk with one another. ---

You cannot initialize a variable to a dynamic value. Image1.Picture is not set to anything at the time of load, so you need to initialize app.Image1 to a static value, like “0”, or empty string " " etc. Setting it to the value of Image1.Picture will have to be done in a procedure or event block. ---
