Aha, Freundliche Felix-Unterstützung! 8-))
Hallo Felix.

>Also better prefix your macro attributes with the parameter name (see 
http://tiddlywiki.com/#TabsMacro) to avoid problems when only specifying 
some of the params.

That's good advice, as I was under the impresison that you could leave the 
prefixes out. In most of the code that I look at to learn how to do it, 
almost everbody ditches them.
So it's better to write class:"tc-vertical" then "tc-vertical" alone.

Anyway I'll try to tell about my problem slowly step by step

When I started out doing this vertical tabs menu it was the example used by 
Jeremy in http://tiddlywiki.com/#TabsMacro 
<http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Ftiddlywiki.com%2F%23TabsMacro&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNG0th67KZxFBkhU1hmfEy7PuNOVqA>
:
<<tabs "[tag[sampletab]]" "SampleTabTwo" "$:/state/tab2" "tc-vertical">>
I could replacate that with simple tiddlers of my own manufactoring, a 
trial run so to say.
And indeed my replacement of Jeremy's SampletabTwo worked. There was a 
vertical tab column and that one tab was open.

No for the real work. [8-))] So I went a bit further and made this:
<<tabs "[tag[Communication]]" "20150326b-AntwOverlapDeadline" 
"$:/state/tab2" "tc-vertical">>
There being several tiddlers with the tag "Communication" and one of the 
tiddlers had the title: "20150326b-AntwOverlapDeadline"
Result: Tab column OK. But NO open tabs at all, al were grey and no sign of 
the content.

The difference was that "SampleTabTwo" was a very simple tiddler, only a 
title+text and that was it.
The content of my tiddler was actually the in-tiddler-display of a PDF by 
using the great PDF Macro by Tobias Beer.

All the tiddlers that I want in the vertical tab column are PDF's. (It's an 
email exchange that I need to document.)

I now realize that this difference (simple tiddler vs PDF-tiddler) might be 
the deciding factor why that tiddler was not opened, and 
wasn't showing initially any content. Clicking on any tab by the way had 
the desired effect, content was shown!!

Of course I will try out your suggestions below later, but I'd love to 
understand firstly were I was going wrong.

MultiGracias
Salut! Ed.
