jseeley Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Is there a way to middle click on a link/bookmark only if you want it open in a new ACTIVE / FOREGROUND tab? I middle click to open a link/bookmark in a new tab but the new tab is not active or in the foreground. Because you may or may not want links/bookmarks to open in new active tabs depending on the situation. Thanks. When I select "Open new tab in foreground" in the Settings, there's no control as to which links will open in a new tab. With this method, way too many links open in new tabs which is undesirable.

THere's no option to do it from the mouse only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, when clicking on a favorite (as opposed to a link), the shift clicking works in the opposite way. When I shift click on a favorite, it opens a new tab in the background and not shift clicking opens in the foreground. But when opening a link, it's the opposite.
