Here is an use case we are trying .. Apk .. MyEmail main -> Inbox view -> composer view -> msgview
If the above apk contains 3 activities .. User launches the "MyEmail: and sees the Inbox .. User selects one of the messages .. thus launching the "msgview" activity .. User goes back to home .. and launches .. composer directly .. () Now the user must be able to switch back and forth between "msgview" and "composer" .. Note this composer window has no association with the Inbox->msgview .. One possible method is to launch the MyEmail in own task and launch another activity (eg.composer) as a separate instance .. This is what I was trying to show in the code above .. I did read through the 'warning' in the docs of FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK usage. Assuming for now we use the RecentAppsDialog(long key press) as the task switcher .. any suggestions ? -Dan On Feb 2, 12:23 pm, Dianne Hackborn <hack...@android.com> wrote: > Please please please don't use FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK unless you really > know what you are doing.
