Hallo Tero,
at the development state it is not possible to add a hal pin to the user tab, but...
This is gmoccapy so there is at least a work around
All buttons can be reached with the hal pins:
so a command likewill open the user tab.
to close that tab again using the hal pin, just use the same commands again.
You may ask, why use the command twice, first setting the pin true than false?
That is because the gui is designed to be used with momentary switches arround the display. So if you want to use a hardware switch, just connect the IO like:
