Page navigator return to page with menu closed

Hi, 
I am using the page navigator button in a hidden menu, made with bookmarks. If I am on page 1 I would click on the menu button and then on page 2. If I then want to go back to page 1 I would click the menu button and then page 1. When returning to page 1 the menu is still open from when I navigated to page 2. I would like to avoid this if possible. How can I fix this so et navigates back to page 1 with a closed menu?

2.Then modify the icon navigation to the page you wish to return to:

This allows you to return to the main page from other pages.
3.Here is the relevant documentation:

@chsch , Create a bookmark with a closed menu and use that in a button instead of a back button.
