Return to a detail view

HI,
I have a main table, which by selecting a record I go to the details view.
From here with an action, I move for each field to a view with a list of records from which you can select what you want (for other reasons I preferred to show the values to choose with a view deck or view table instead of assign the field a ref type).
Since the selection is made I would like to return (not go to the previous view detail), how can I do this? Because when passing the detail view (with an action that has LINKTOVIEW()) it is as if another view were added and therefore when I would like to go back with the arrow at the top left I have to go through all the past views before arriving at the main view . Can it be resolved as if it were a LINKTOPARENTVIEW(), but not to the main view but to the Detail view?

So, if I understand you correctly, a user selects a record from one view,  let's call it the mainview, then in the details view.  The details view includes an a action that returns the user to a filtered version of the main view.  Your your goal is to have available on the filtered view of records an action that will return them to the initial view. 

If that's a correct understanding, I think what you'd need is to create a 2nd version of the main view.  Let's called it the filtered_main_view.   The filtered_main_view might look the same as the records look in your filtered view of the main view (or not). By making it a distinct view, you can make an action item, conditional on the view name.  This new action will be to change the view back to the main view.  

 

Maybe I didn't schematize well and I apologize...
I have the main view (view A) from which I select the record and go to the detail view (view B)...
With one action for each field I switch to the view (view C) with a list of values to choose from, and view C is in Deck or Table format...
When I select the value to save, with an Acton I save in view B ( table B) and I would like to go back to this view B, instead of LINKTOPARENTVIEW to go back to view A (Obviously the LINKTOROW or LINKTOVIEW command would allow it, but it's like they open an infinity of views)...
