Use the Tabs Macro
It is possible to put other macros inside this one. Some larger or more complex macros may not work, or work differently than expected.
When trying to figure out which marcos can be put inside others there it helps to identify the type of macro you are working with. There are two general types of macro:-
Rich Body Macros -There are macros that you can type in on the Confluence Edit page
Simple Macros - These are macros that you can not add anything to on the edit page, you can only affect them by opening them in the editor.
Typically Rich Body Macros, do not work as expected, or at all when put inside other Rich Body Macros.
Most, but not all Simple macros can be put inside a Rich Body Macro, and often work as expected.
See below for more information on what happens when you put various macros inside this macro.
