    Hi, does anyone know of a way to automatically link to the TV Tab?

    Thanks

      I don't think that's possible currently. The active tab is loaded from the "state" (which is written to the registry) and isn't affected by the url. With some serious extjs-fu it might be possible to hijack loading the active state, but that is probably too much work compared to the value you'll get out of it.

          Yeah I thought it would be something along those lines, thanks for the info. I'm basically trying to create an external button that links directly to the Template Variables tab of a document.
