Transitioning from one tab-detail to another tab-detail and going back

ionic-v1

This is old post, but i faced similar problem and i created a simple solution.

I created a duplicate state & route (but unique name). This route with slightly different url pointing to same controller, receiving same params. It’s no longer switching tab and getting a nice back button. So to replicate your example:

.state('tab.galleriesToExhibition', {
      url: '/galleries/:id/Exhid/:exid',

      views: {
        'gallery-tab': {
          templateUrl: 'templates/galleries.html',
          controller: 'GalleriesIndexCtrl'
        }
      }
    })
