There must be an easier way to look at screens?

When constructing 'screens' through buzz touch and organising there location within the App is there an easier way to see a tree-like-diagram?, I end up getting confused easily the way it is set up now. Thanks in advance.

Right now there is no other way - and trust me, I was in the same boat as you when I first started. Eventually, when you keep messing around, you'll start understanding the way the BT team has set everything up, and it will come easy. trust me! I'm sure there working on a easier interface - but whenever that comes out, who knows! Probably not a big priority for them at the moment. Take care, and best of luck! David buzztouchmods.com

My solution is to add a pre-fix to the screen nickname. Ex. ahome1 - Home Screen #1 ahome2 - Home Screen #2 ahome4 - Home Screen #3 lakeMapMenu a - Lake Maps lakeMapMenu item1 - cove lakeMapMenu item2 - marina lakeMapMenu item3 - dam lakeMapMenu item4 - below dam Actually I use a code instead of words to keep nickname smaller. ex. lmm#1 - cove instead of lakeMapMenu item - item1 so lmm - Lake Maps lmm#1 - cove lmm#2 - marina lmm#3 - dam When you use list view, by sorting A-Z the screens are grouped together making it easy to find and to work on related screens. Bonus - The home screens are listed first allowing you to navigate through the screens quickly instead having to find the home screen. Fred
