Your best bet is to put up a simple CodePen sample that shows what you are currently doing to deal with the duplicated state. Then, we can see if there is a way to “share” it.
My first thought was that this should be “easy”. I just linked to the “facts” view from within the “abouts” view.
Unfortunately, you lose the navigation stack because you are aren’t linking to something who’s view target is the home-tab.
I don’t really see anyway around this. The “views” property in the state tells it which <ion-nav-view> to render into. You have to tell it something.
I’m afraid that duplicating a state might be the only way to go. @mhartington do you any any suggestions on this?
@NeoGeneration, I’m afraid @Calendee is right, it doesn’t seem like it’s possible. Because of the way that the states and view are set up, you’ll need to duplicate your state and define a new outlet for the view.
To my understanding of ui-router, I think this is the only way to do it.
Did any of you guys solved that thing since last year? I need something exactly similar: multiple tabs rendering the same state with different url parameters.
Duplicating routes is not really an option for me.
