Sencha Touch 2: loading view from button tap doesn't have bottom Tab bar and back button at the title bar

Question

I'm new to sencha and having a problem with tab bar. My first view has 2 buttons and a list below it. tapping any item list navigates to detail view and that view shows the bottom tab bar which has 4 icon and it has a back button that goes back to the homeContent view.

Now when I tap on readyButton in homeContent.js , I want to navigate to ReadyScreenView.js. It is doing that now, however I don't have the back button at the top of this screen, and it doesn't have a tab bar.

How can I make sure all the views has a tab bar and a back button that goes back to the previous screen. If I select the bottom bar icons, it navigates fine and tab bar remains. Only if the navigation is done by a button click, I don't see the bottom tab bar and back button. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Answer 1

Your onNewTap should push your new view onto homeContainer:

Ext.define('COSD.controller.ReadyButtonController', {
    extend: 'Ext.app.Controller',

    config: {
        control: {
            '#readyButton': {
                // On the tap event, call onNewTap
                tap: 'onNewTap'
            }
        },
        refs: {
            homeContainer: 'homeContainer'
        }
    },

    launch: function() {
    },

    onNewTap: function() {
        this.getHomeContainer().push({xtype: 'readyscreenview'})
    }
});
