Is It Possible to Open the Detail View of a Referenced Row in Nested Columns View?

I’m using nested columns view in a Deck View to display referenced subtasks. I want users to be able to click on a referenced row and automatically open the Detail View of that referenced record from the corresponding table.

Currently, clicking on the referenced subtask opens the Detail View of the main task. Do I need to adjust any settings to ensure this behavior?

Thanks a lot! By the way, I found a solution to the issue I mentioned in the title. The Subtasks table is a nested column of the main Tasks table. I created a dummy action for the Tasks table that does nothing when clicked. For the Subtasks table, I kept the current inline action that navigates to the row. This way, clicking on a nested row automatically opens that row.

You can add an Inline button into the row.  When tapped, will open the Child row Detail View...or any other view you wish.  See image.

The Nested Table of Deck Views is a great feature!  Unfortunately, many of us opt not to use it because of its navigation issues and the introduction of unnecessary white space into the Deck View.  At one time it had issues with column alignment but I am not see that in my examples today.  Be wary of these issues and test it thoroughly to make sure it works for your needs.

That's brilliant, I will try immediately

Thank you so much for your great feedback

@WillowMobileSys I love the 17% chart.
Can you share the whole view?

 

Also, can you share how you made the %17 as a photo, please? 🙂

Below is the Tip article I originally got the indicator graphic from.  You can search for "SVG" Tip articles to get other insights on how to use SVG's.
