Ideas for Arc XP

As a user, when I click on 'Save and Exit' button of an application, the tab should should close.

Currently when I click on 'Save and Exit', the object that is opened (usually a story) is indeed saved and closed but then I'm redirected to the home screen of the application. From my understanding it is more usual that the tab simply closes and I fall back on to the last opened tab in my browser.

The benefit I see is:

  • it is a more usual behavior

  • it reduces the number of tabs i have open for Arc in my browser

    Hi Guillaume,

    Thanks for your idea submission! So "save and exit" and having that call to action close a tab is tricky, because there are scenarios and use cases where a user would want/expect the "save and exit" to take them back to where they were before. If we implement "save and exit" to close the tab a user is on, we'd have to do that in all instances to keep the behavior consistent across Arc. Because of that this is likely something we won't implement, especially since a user can manually close a tab if they are done with it, after they select "save and exit".

    Thanks,

    Larry
