Public Method Author API

backToItemEdit()

Navigates back to the Item edit view from any lower level views within the Item editor. This includes the widget (Question or Feature) edit view, Item settings view, and the passage list view.

This method will check for unsaved changes and will prompt the author before navigating to the Item edit view.

var navigationResult = authorApp.backToItemEdit();
console.log(navigationResult);

Arguments

None.

Return value
