Android Question [B4XPages] How to get MainPage Id

B4X:

Private Sub B4XPage_Created (Root1 As B4XView)
    Root = Root1
    Root.LoadLayout("MainPage")
    Log(B4XPages.GetPageId(Me))   'Log: mainpage
End Sub

However, if you can't get back to "mainpage", you may have removed it with .ShowPageAndRemovePreviousPages(..)
How do you show your first page?

I also found that you need to first call B4XPages.show to show the page you want to show, before closing the current page.

Private Sub B4XPage_CloseRequest As ResumableSub
    B4XPages.ShowPage("mainpage")   
    Return True
End Sub

Also note that you don't need to close a page before showing another.

The pages are in a queue, so that all you need to do is
B4XPages.ShowPage("mainpage")
No need to close the current page.

Hi Guys and Gals...

My first page showing is other than MainPage, But at some point, I would like to show MainPage....
The problem lies exactly here : While the close method takes an object as argument, the show method takes a String, and I can't figure out what the ID is.
I have stried strings like "mainpage" ; "MainPage" ; "B4XMainPage" and a few others, but nothing seems to work.

Help!!

Thanks in advance
