How can I create a third level of tabs in the administrative area of the CMS?

I can create a new tab named "Zooph" like this:

      $fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Zooph", new LiteralField('CustomCode1','Hello World'));

But how can I create a deeper level of tabs under "Zooph"?

AFAIK you can only create 2 levels. If Root.Content.Zooph.Test doesn't work then I would assume it doesn't work.

You can add new TabSets easily:

function getCMSFields() {
		$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
		
		$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.ContentBlocks",new TabSet('ContentBlockSet',
			new Tab('HeaderContent', new HTMLEditorField("HeaderContent")),
			new Tab('LeftContent', new HTMLEditorField("LeftContent")),
			new Tab('RightContent', new HTMLEditorField("RightContent"))
		));
		
		$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Widgets",new TabSet('WidgetsSet',
			new Tab('WidgetsLeftTop', new WidgetAreaEditor("WidgetsLeftTopArea")),
			new Tab('WidgetsLeftBottom', new WidgetAreaEditor("WidgetsLeftBottomArea")),
			new Tab('WidgetsRightTop', new WidgetAreaEditor("WidgetsRightTopArea")),
			new Tab('WidgetsRightBottom', new WidgetAreaEditor("WidgetsRightBottomArea"))
		));

		return $fields;
	}

Thank you for this fresh information.

I ran into a website error whenever I added more than four 2nd-level tabs in the CMS. This solution was a breeze.
