Typo3 TCA override tt_content add palette to existing tab (--div--)

I try to add a palette to the tt_content table under the existing tab 'General'. Here my tt_conten.php file.

<?php
defined('TYPO3_MODE') or die();

// Feld definieren
$tempColumns = [
 'tx_imagetext_color' => [
 'label' => 'color',
 'exclude' => 0,
 'config' => [
 'type' => 'input',
 'eval' => 'trim',
 ]
 ],
 'tx_imagetext_image' => [
 'label' => 'image',
    'config' => [
    'type' => 'select',
    'renderType' => 'selectSingle',
    'special' => 'languages',
    'items' => [
        [
        'LLL:EXT:lang/locallang_general.xlf:LGL.allLanguages',
        -1,
        'flags-multiple'
        ]
    ],
    'default' => 0,
    ],
 ]
];

// Feld der allgemeinen Datensatzbeschreibung hinzufügen - noch keine Ausgabe im Backend!
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addTCAcolumns('tt_content', $tempColumns);

// Feld einer neuen Palette hinzufügen
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addFieldsToPalette(
        'tt_content',
        'imagetext',
        'tx_imagetext_color, tx_imagetext_image'
        );

// Neue Palette dem Tag hinzufügen, nach dem Titel - Dadurch Anzeige im Backend
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addToAllTCAtypes(
 'tt_content',
 '--div--;general,
 --palette--;;imagetext',
 '',
 ''
);

Typo3 creates a new general on the end with the right palette. But I want that the palette should appear in the already existing tab General.

How can I achive that?

--div--;general explicitly creates a new tab with the name "general".

If you only want your new palette to appear right after some other field in the "general" tab you only need to specify that field as the last argument of addToAllTCAtype function. As you wrote "nach dem Titel" I assume you want it appear right after the header field. The following works for me in TYPO3 10 but I think it should be the same in v. 9.5.xx

// Neue Palette hinzufügen, nach dem Titel - Dadurch Anzeige im Backend
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addToAllTCAtypes(
    'tt_content',
    '--palette--;;imagetext',
    '',
    'after:header'
);

A little more explanation

addToAllTCAtypes takes four arguments:

  1. argument: Table to add the field for
  2. argument: New field (or in you case palette)
  3. argument: List of types to add this field to (in your case empty, as you want the field to appear in all types, I assume)
  4. argument: Position where to add the field. Can either be "before:fieldname", "after:fieldname" or "replace:fieldname")
