However, the first and primary tab is "Home", which is a List Menu. Is it possible to link to tabs DIRECTLY from a list menu? By that, I mean when a user hits an item on the menu list, it takes him to ANOTHER tab. If I didn't make myself 100% clear, let me know. Thanks Title Comments I'm making an App with multiple tabs.

This is a weird user experience (you'd have to see it to really understand it, I suppose). But it is possible. Just link the list menu item to the same screen that's used for the tab setting.

Is that possible? Comments Strobe, I know that, but I want to prevent that and actually switch to the other tab. Is that possible?
