Tab Interactions and Button States

Hello everyone, I have a problem that may have a simple solution but I just can't seem to find it. I'm building a simple tab interaction and I want users to be able to close out of the current tab and return to the base layer, since that layer may have important information that users may need access again. 

I added an exit button to each layer, but one thing I've come across, is the tab button remains in a selected state. The solution I've found (seen on slide 2) is to add a button to the base layer that hides all layers and add it to the button set along with the other tabs, but I'm still wondering if their is a solution to slide 1.

Thank you!

  • I think the simplest solution is to add a trigger to the X (close) button on each layer that changes the corresponding tab button to Visited.
