Status: Unconfirmed Owner: ---- Labels: Type-Bug Pri-2 OS-All Area-Misc New issue 18138 by CarpeDiemFX: Auto focus on new background tab http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=18138
Chrome Version : 3.0.196.0 URLs (if applicable) : ALL What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Right click on any link 2. Click "open in a new tab" 3. chrome auto focuses onto the new tab, instead of opening into the background What is the expected result? All previous version of chrome opened new tabs in the background through this method (right click menu). What happens instead? This new version autofocuses on this tab. I believe this should not be the default setting. Middleclicking is not an option for some people as they do not have the mouse wheel button (or is assigned to voice command/other functions). Ctrl-click requires use of keyboard. At least having the option to switch back or having the previous default of opening in a background tab is MUCH more convenient. Especially when you want to open multiple links on one page, you don't have to keep refocusing on the old tab. Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible. I noticed that 3.0.159.4 had reverted back to the old settings but this new build reverted back to the autofocus. Can we please stop the experimentation? MSIE gets this right, why can't chrome? -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
