I am working with the TabView from the community toolkit and I am trying to Navigate to another Content Page/view within one of my 3 tabs.

I want to do this and remain on the TabView page. Is this possible? I know how it works for Tabbed Page and for Shell, but these methods do not transfer for TabViews. How does one go about this? Thank you

    Hello,​

    Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

    I want to do this and remain on the TabView page. Is this possible?

    What does 'remain on the TabView page' mean? It's available to go back to the previous tabView when navigating to a page. TabView provides SelectedIndex property, you could get and store the value. Then retrive the value and set it for the tabView when coming back.

    If you want to display a page inside the tabView, it's unable to do that. XCT:TabView is just a control which is shown in a page, we cannot put a page in it.

    Best Regards,
