I create the menu of my app and when I start it I want the Notes screen to appear, but I get another one (one that is not in the menu), how can I force it to open the screen(tab) I want?

Many Thanks!!!

if i understand correct what you’re trying to do, this can be done using a button (or something else that triggers an action) and using the show new screen action (if you want to create a new screen) you can  
open a new screen and decide what data you want to show.

Thank you very much, the only thing I want is that the first screen that appears to the user is one that I define by default and not one that the system wants to put, and I can’t find how to do that.

Drag that tab to the first position, on the tab menu, (left top editor)
