You shouldn't need to do that any longer. If you create a new Wonder D2W
project, it will be an ERModern project these days.

Sorry about that. The install process for WO/Wonder/WOLips just sucks. It's
amazing to me that anyone new gives it a try. I saw sometime ago that Ken
Ishimoto had been working on an installer, but I never had a chance to try it.
We all muddled through this at one point, if that gives you any comfort :-)
If your app launches, it's probably not your installation.

Did you try debugging your rule firings to see what was being set for
navigationState and why?

To use tabs on a Modern page, you have to have a tab or wizard page
configuration/subtask. Otherwise, it doesn't work. When you create the page,
use a pageConfiguration like "EditTabEntity" or "EditWizardEntity" instead of
"EditEntity". CreateEntity pages are subtask=wizard by default, so the tabbing
should work.
