! Examples
Here is an example of a pair of buttons that open the control panel directly to specified tabs. They work by using ''action-setfield'' to set the state tiddler for the control panel tabs.
<$macrocall $name='wikitext-example-without-html'

<$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/state/tab-1749438307" text="$:/core/ui/ControlPanel/Appearance"/>
<$action-navigate $to="$:/ControlPanel"/>

<$action-setfield $tiddler="HelloThere" tags="NewTag [[Another New Tag]]" color="red"/>
