There is a way to do this. The Demo maps at the "Dartware Demo" server all have links back to a "Parent Map". Add a server with IM RemoteAccess for "intermapper.dartware.com", at port 8181. See what happens when you double-click the arrow on the "Example.com-Atlanta" map...

To create these on your maps, set the double-click URL for an icon. Here are the steps:

-       Add Text... to a map. Enter a legend like, "To Parent Map"

- Change its icon as desired. (I like to use the up-arrow icon, from the Default Icons).

-       Right-click on the device, and choose Double-click Action -> URL...

-       You'll see a "Set Double-click URL" window appear. Paste in this text:

        intermapper://$SAMEHOST$:8181/Destination%20Map%20Name

- Change the map name ("Destination%20Map%20Name" in the above example) to be the name of the the destination map. Note that you must use URL escaping, and all spaces should be changed to %20.
