Getting timer overlay to return to home screen on Edge 820 CIQ data field

Hello,

im building my first data field for my new Edge 820. When I tap on the map or any native data field page I get the timer overlay with the house symbol to return to the home screen.
But this behavior isn't working for my CIQ data field. Is there a way to get this overlay to return back to the home screen?

It is possible for data fields to capture input on our touchscreen Edge devices. Have you provided an input delegate with this data field? If not, there is probably a device bug with regard to this interaction. If you have provided an input delegate, you will need to return false from this delegate to pass the input through to the system.

Hi Brian,
I haven't used input delegates in my data field, it was a "simple" complex data field :D. But with your advice I've added a delegate class to my data field and return false in the onTap event. And now it's working perfect like expected. When I tap on my data field I get the overlay with the home icon. Before that I tested some other data fields from the Connect IQ store but no one was able to display the overlay, so it could be a bug. I'm on latest SDK 2.3.1 and latest Edge 820 firmware 8.00. So many thanks for your help.
