I am trying to get/set the current active tab of a multiparm in my hda but am having no luck, it seems this has been asked multiple times in the past with no answer:

so I'm adding to the pile... is there any way to do this? it really makes interaction difficult.

If i dont set the stash as editable i get this

As I said, promote the stash data parm to your HDA

Ok, i get it now!

this is not just a label, which it looks like, its the geometry itself.
to anyone else showing up asking the same question, drag this into your HDA params. it can be set as hidden

thanks!

, its exposed and I have set the stash to "editable"

Don't make the node editable

Only promote the stash dataparm (or also the buttons if you are using those unless you have custom ones) and as long as it's default value is empty it should always save into definition as empty

If i dont set the stash as editable i get this
