Configure default tab

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I’m always frustrated when I cannot make it as easy as possible for the user like when the user has to click something unnecessarily.

Describe the solution you’d like It would be great, if the default tab is configurable. Currently the default tab is always canvas.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered Thanks to #7066 and #9095 we are able to hide the canvas tab, but this is not an option, because I want to keep it. My users want to see the docs tab by default and switch to another if they need to.

Are you able to assist bring the feature to reality? Yes I can, if you tell me some starting points to implement this.

Additional context Even though the canvas tab is hidden on my start page, the canvas tab is selected by default:

Written regarding the storybook version 6.0.12.

As it turns out this is actually already possible. I’ve added a .storybook/preview.js config with the following content:

import { addParameters } from '@storybook/client-api';

addParameters({
  viewMode: 'docs',
});

I’m on version 6.0.13. I’ve found the necessary hints here.

Maybe I am wrong but is that the same as doing

export const parameters = {
	actions: { argTypesRegex: '^on[A-Z].*' },
	viewMode: 'docs'
}
