I would like to have a panel page at the url topics/%topicname and another panel page at the url topics/%topicname/news. I have been able to setup these pages and configure the context and properly pass it to the views that are embedded. I cannot get the tabs working properly though.

The tabs on the first page should be: HOME and NEWS, with HOME active, and the tabs on the second should be HOME and NEWS with NEWS active. No combination of menu settings on my panels pages achieves this.

Here's an illustration of my current configuration (top half) and the desired configuration (bottom half): http://i.imgur.com/wkQoL.png

Default tabs are weird. These are documented well in Views but that documentation has never come over to Panels.

Create your HOME page as topics/%topicname/home

Set this to 'default tab'.

Create your NEWS page as topics/%topicname/news

Set this to be just 'tab'.

For further information on this, check out the advanced help for Views for page displays. The information is pretty much the same.
