return to "control pages" inside of a control page?

I have several control pages that I go back and forth to within my control pages. At times I'd like to quickly go to "control pages" and be able to select another control page to display. Is there a way within a control page to directly goto the list of "control pages"? That would simplify having to keep going back until I come to the page that would be the list of "control pages".


Thanks in advance.

Having the upper left button go directly back to the list of control pages instead of the previous page might violate Apple's Human Interface Guidelines, but I would cast an enthusiastic vote for doing it.

We have some plans on improving Control Page navigation in the next major release of Indigo Touch. No ETA on when we'll get to it though, but I agree it could use some improvement.

On a minor side note to Indigo Touch improvements, functionality for press and hold would also be appreciated.

Mat,
To your point about new Touch interface options coming, would that include gestures, data entry pop-ups etc?
There are so many things you could do to make Control pages look and feel like IOS apps and take full advantage of the Touchscreen and I expect it would significantly reduce the amount of hand-crafted (and in my case often buggy) Applescript.
Is that an Indigo 7 feature or might it come in a later Indigo 6 upgrade?

Perhaps - but adding multi-touch gestures, under the control of the user, is a large undertaking. We might add some specific built-in gestures in the next release though (navigation, etc).

It's unclear what the timing is since some changes will require Indigo Touch to be updated, some changes will require Indigo to be updated, and some changes will require both. But it's on our list to look at.

We don't have details yet as to what the new Indigo Touch features will be. The time frame is pretty far out still. We need to get Indigo 6 out of beta, which includes supporting quite a few new Z-Wave modules. Indigo Touch is independent of the main Indigo version, so the next major release of Indigo Touch could be out before we release anything like Indigo 7. But we don't have any details yet to announce -- too far out.

(just noticed Jay beat me to the reply!)

FEATURE REQUEST:
Would it be possible to add a (user customizable) timed delay for sub pages that when X seconds of inactivity is detected the "sub-CP" will return to the "home-CP"?

Scenario:
A dedicated music sub-CP is created that is a layer down from the home-CP. Tap to navigate to the music CP, then hit play, pause, next track, etc., and walk away. After a custom defined period of time, the UI will return to the home-CP. Taking it a step further, request adding a "stay on this CP" toggle if you wanted to keep the sub-CP up to view the album art for example.

Thoughts?

We'll add it to the feature request list.
