Move your screens around for testing/development purposes so the screen you are actively editing is first in the list. When you are done with it, place it in the screen tree where you please

I agree that being able to set what screen is displayed in the companion would be a nice feature to have implemented… If I am remembering correctly it displayed the current screen you edited in the early stages of Thunkable X but later was changed.

I think a switch could solve this because there will be cases where you want to start from the first app screen but I also experience cases where I do not want to navigate through every step just to check some changes I just made on a particular screen…

I’ll file a feature request for this 🙂

Best, Chris

To that end, we have a tutorial that shows how to do this:

> With the Component Tree in Thunkable X you can quickly and easily reorder your screens. By default, every time you create a new screen it goes to the bottom of the list: [screen1] But, you can drag and drop the screens to any position you like to change the order they open: [screen3] While this is great for editing and updating your app, it’s even better to save you time while live testing. Let’s imagine that your home screen has a splash screen that you have to watch over and over while t…
