Custom Extension with Multiple Tabs - Can you have a custom order for the tabs?

Revit API

I have a custom extension with multiple tabs. I’d like to set an order to the tabs without relying on renaming the tab folders - i.e. I’d rather not have the tabs labeled 1. 2. 3.
I’ve run across something saying I need a title attribute in the bundle.yaml file under the tab folder, but that doesn’t seem to do anything.

Is this possible?

Thanks!

It’s possible! (If all tabs is in the same .extension at least)
Place a bundle.yaml file in the .extension folder:

layout:
- Tab3
- Tab1
- Tab2

This will sort the tabs in the order you want.
I think you cannot control the pyRevit tab however (if it’s “deployed”), it will be placed as the last tab.

you can also give this a shot try CTRL+Click and drag the tab directly in Revit.
