I\'m trying to simple navigation. And I tried more than one way to open another screen.
I used your code, I was able to make it work, however, I made some adjustments.
I think your issue with the code just as you have it right now, is a "scope" issue, let me explain a little bit.
You are trying to call "m.top.ComponentController" within you panelset.brs file but "ComponentController" is not a field on the panelset component, in that scope you can only access the fields on the panelset interface.
So you have two options:
1 - On your panelSet.brs instead of calling "m.top.ComponentController" change it for "m.top.getScene().ComponentController".
2 - Create a field within your on your wisePanel.xml, add a listener to that field where you create the WisePanel component, in that scope, you'll be able to m.top.componentController.
Note: I used the setup_and_helloworld link example of the Roku Dev with your files.
