    For anyone who updates, does the new version of Edge allow you to right click a link, select 'open in new tab', and automatically open and switch to that new tab without pressing Ctrl and Shift? That is the one feature I can't do without. Especially if it is a mouse gesture, which the current version of Edge is totally crippled with compared to the competition.

    Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old. While the military are doing their part, it simply isn't enough to make the amount of nukes needed to save those poor stars. - TWI2T3D (Reddit)

      It look like the same behaviour for me. But maybe there's some other gesture that does it that I'm not aware of. I'm happy to try stuff out if you have any ideas! Rich.

        If you right click a link to open in a new tab.... Edge does not go to that Tab.... And I cannot find anything in Settings to change that behavior at all... unlike Chrome....

          Right-click does open in a new tab, but doesn't switch to it.

            Interesting, I actually like how Chrome does NOT do that. When I open in new tab it is usually because I am researching something and will be opening multiple tabs from one page and so I don't want it to switch until I have a bunch open and then I go through each one.

              Chrome doesn't, which to my mind is good: I tend to open "batches" of tabs, and don't want them switching automatically. But you can make it do it, if you want: Tab Activate - Chrome Web Store[^] will do it (or allow the "proper" way if you hold SHIFT down)

              Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

                  Firefox does give you the option whether to switch to new Tab or not...

                        I am a man for instant gratification I guess. My research pattern is to keep the search page open, read the link in a new tab, and close the tab to get back to the search page where I left off. Using mouse gestures make it incredibly quick.

                          Thanks. I've used Chrome's Tab To Front for the chore without any problems. Now I use Vivaldi (and like it a lot!), and its mouse gestures do the trick nicely without any extensions. But I haven't figured out a way to do so in Edge, and can't believe they haven't added the functionality yet. But they DO let you click a link in Bing (which I have no use for), and open it in a new tab automatically to the front, so they have unwittingly acknowledged that it is a useful feature. :rolleyes: I would play with it some more, because Edge feels significantly faster than anything else I've tried, from the little I've played with it, but I can't get over the lack of this feature - let's see how many more phrases I can add to this sentence, before it becomes a mind-killer: will this one tip the scale? ;P
