I couldn't find any meaningful documentation on manifest.xml structure.
Can anybody point me where to look exactly?
I am particularly interested in <Lifecycle> tag and any additional options there I could use.
When user enables my panel via Window -> Extensions, it shows up by default as collapsed into icon. I would like to show up inlined somewhere by default.
Is it possible?

Additionally, if I have several tabs implemented in my HTML panel, can I have them always open in the same Tab Group?

Thanks for the link, that documentation has nothing about how to write a correct manifest.xml or about which properties can you use there

Regarding the tabs you same save your last session in a cookie and on open read the cookie to reset the tabs.
Just save the cookie every time you change the tab selection.

This wouldn't solve default positioning though?

Look at the samples for more info on how to write the manifest. Look at these links Adobe HTML Panels Development What you need to know & where to find it? | Creative-Scripts.com

Probably, This element doesn't fit your needs.
Lifecycle has two elements, First one is AutoVisible(true/false), It controls whether the extension's UI should be made visible automatically when started or if the extension wants to control this itself. 2nd one is StartOn, Specifies zero or more events on which the extension should be started. The name of the event has to be the fully qualified event id. You can reference Trevor's suggestion.

Right, this ExtensionManifest is the closes to documentation, thanks. At least all fields there are listed
So getting back to my problem, there is no solution, I guess?
I want to somehow instruct the panel to always show up in a tab instead of being collapsed into the icon.Also, when I have several panels (tabs), I want them to show up in the same tab group by default.
