Unless I am missing a setting anywhere the only way to return to the application after attempting to login is:

1. Login successfully
2. Use the browser back arrow

Problem is, if I am in a broser in Kiosk or Full Screen mode I have no way to navigate “back” in the browser and I am stuck on the login screen if I don’t know a successful login or if I just want to cancel logging in?

Is there a setting I’m missing? If not, can something be done to be able to navigate back to the application that was running before the login screen was triggered?

> Hi, We have large touch screen monitors running a full screen Perspective page, with no keyboard attached. The issue that I have is that if someone touches the login button, the Ignition idP page is presented and the only way out seems to be a successful login. These applications do not require authentication as everything is read only until login. This means if an unauthorised person touches the login button, they cannot cancel. Only way is to exit fullscreen, use the browser back button, an…

Maybe someday soon?

I see an "EXIT LOGIN" button to the bottom right of the login page on version 8.1.27
