How to Handle Back Navigation in a Nested Navigation Graph with Jetpack Compose?
I'm having a hard time understanding I'm working on a personal project and I'm maintaining legacy code that I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but I tried several approaches but none seem to work..... I'm working with an scenario with back navigation when using nested navigation graphs in my Jetpack Compose application. I have a main navigation graph that leads to a nested graph for user profiles, and I'm trying to implement back navigation to return to the previous screen correctly. My `NavHost` setup looks something like this: ```kotlin NavHost(navController = mainNavController, startDestination = "home") { composable("home") { HomeScreen(navController) } navigation(startDestination = "profile_list", route = "profile") { composable("profile_list") { ProfileListScreen(navController) } composable("profile_detail/{userId}") { backStackEntry -> ProfileDetailScreen(navController, backStackEntry.arguments?.getString("userId")) } } } ``` When I'm on the `ProfileDetailScreen` and I press back, I expect to return to `ProfileListScreen`, but instead, I end up back on the `HomeScreen`, skipping the `ProfileListScreen`. I've tried using `navController.popBackStack()` explicitly, but it doesn't seem to help. I've also checked the back stack with `navController.backQueue` to understand what’s happening, and it appears that the `ProfileListScreen` is being removed from the stack when navigating to `ProfileDetailScreen`. Is there a recommended approach or best practice for handling back navigation in nested graphs? I am using Compose version 1.2.0 and Navigation component 2.5.0. Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated! My development environment is Ubuntu. Is there a better approach? My development environment is Windows. This is for a mobile app running on Linux. Has anyone dealt with something similar? I'm coming from a different tech stack and learning Kotlin. Any suggestions would be helpful.
