Add some Context Menus / Links to other tabs (eg: viewing a schedule -> go to schedules tab to inspect) #752

Enhancement Request

When viewing a schedule, in the OSApp, whether that's on the Control tab of the HVAC Systems View:

Or in the main right column controller

I'd like to be able to Right Click, or click a special button that would take me to the Schedules tab, with the schedule in question expanded so I can inspect it directly.

Possible Implementation

A proof of concept could be done first to test the waters, then I suppose it could be expanded to other tabs and types (eg: from the building tab, right click on a construction set or schedule set. from the HVAC Loop view, right click a thermal zone, or an ATU, etc).

Here is an example / POC (caveat: created with horrendous code)

Implementing a back & forward button will make sense with this feature.
