click on ticket raises a new browser window but we want a new tab page

[anonymous]

Is there an option to let the tickets appear as new tab in the browser? Raising a new browser window is unexpected behavior and confuses nearly all members of my team.

Sorry, no; no such option yet.

Working on this.

I have this sort of working.

I think I need a Trac-jsGantt configuration option to choose between:

• Existing behavior
  • Any click opens the ticket in a new window
  • Click another, replace the window opened for the first
• Trac ticket link behavior (which, I think, is just browser behavior)
  • Click replaces
  • Shift click opens in new window
  • Middle click (Chrome-derived browsers, only) opens in another tab

I think I'd default to the new behavior.

I don't see any way to have clicking open a new tab in a browser-independent way.

In 13367:

Add link style option to jsGantt. Refs #11228.

By default, the old jsGantt behavior of opening a new window persists.

Can pass "standard" to get standard browser behavior for ticket links:

• Click replaces the current window
• Shift-click opens the ticket in a new window
• (In Chrome) Middle Click opens in a new tab

Use jsgantt option to control link style. Refs #11228.

Yeah, works great with FF. What is the reason why you don't support middle click with FF?

I don't seem to be able to trap that event. Chrome seems to do some magic under the hood. I actually *test* *for* middle button but it doesn't do what I expect.

Chris, maybe this one helps: ​http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1930875/disabling-middle-click-scrolling-with-javascript

This should be doing the right thing in the current version. Please let me know.
