Show back button when switching to a page and copying

At a glance

The community member describes a frequent pattern of designing a page, needing something from another page, switching to that page, copying it, and then going back to the previous page. The community member suggests that when a page is selected in the navigator, and the following action is copy, a back button should be shown in the top bar to bring the user back to the previous page. The comments indicate that the community members realize the browser back button already serves this purpose, with one comment saying "wow this is actually really nice" and another simply saying "haha".

I've noticed a frequent pattern of mine:

  1. Designing a page and need something I have from another page
  2. Switch to another page and copy it
  3. Go back to pages and find the previous page.
My suggestion is that when a page is selected in the navigator, and the following action is copy, show a back button in the top bar that brings me back to the previous page.

Not sure if we have that type of sequence recognition but would be a neat UX thing.
