                    Toggle(isOn: $setGoal) {
                        Text("Set-Goal:")

                                    .textFieldStyle(.roundedBorder)
                            }
                        }
                        else if (factType == "cat")
                        {
                            **NavigationLink("Pick successful categories:", destination: CatGoalSelect(catArray: $catArray, successCats: $successCats, selected: [""]))**
                        }
                        else if (factType == "yn")
                        {
                            Picker("", selection: $successYN, content: {
                                Text("Yes")
                                Text("No")
                            })
                            .pickerStyle(SegmentedPickerStyle())
                        }
                        Spacer()
                        HStack {
                            Text("How often to succeed?")
                            Picker("", selection: $successFreq, content: {
                                  Text("Everyday").tag("Everyday")
                                  Text("Certain days of the week").tag("Certain days of the week")
                                  Text("Number of days per period").tag("Number of days per period")
                                  })
                        }
                        Spacer()
                        if successFreq == "Certain days of the week"
                        {
                           ** NavigationLink("Choose days of the week", destination: DoWGoalSelect(successDoW: $successDoW))**
                        }

I have three separate NavigationLinks (highlighted with asterisks) with three separate destination views; clicking on any link brings up a stack of all activated links' views (while setGoal is false only the CategoryAdd view is displayed - otherwise all three are opened). Within the destination view I use a button to dismiss.

I tried changing the syntax (using destination: or putting the view in the curly braces of the link). I wanted to use tag and selection but it's been deprecated. I put three NavigationLinks in a VStack and they worked correctly (opening only one view), so I feel like this is a bug, but I'm new to Swift, so I don't know.

NavigationStack uses a different kind of NavigationLink it's the one that takes a value and has a matching .navigationDestination, eg

NavigationStack {
    List(parks) { park in
        NavigationLink(park.name, value: park)
    }
    .navigationDestination(for: Park.self) { park in
        ParkDetails(park: park)
    }
}

Maybe you can show the exact implementation of this using my code and not a list because I tried using .navigationDestination and it did not work
