CentBrowser Forum

is there any way to force new windows to open in new tabs?

or maybe it could be implemented as an option?

Please check "Open popup window in tab" in chrome://settings/cbTabOptions

thanks, but this is different, I don't want popup windows only, but all "open in new window",
for example if I right click on "Bugs & Suggestions" link above and (accidentally) click "open in new window",
I would prefer a new tab to be opened, there was an option to do so in firefox, where I come from

You can hold on SHIFT and click left mouse button.

no, you still didn't understand, I want pages opened in new windows accidentally to be forced to open in new tabs,
new windows should be disabled in all cases and forced to become new tabs

the purpose of "open in a new window" is actually to open the link...in a new window (Captain obvious, I know)

asking to change the behavior of a feature that is INTENDED to be what it is and do what it does, just because you're distracted and don't check what you are doing, it's like asking to remove the feature to close Centbrowser with its Close button...this is nonsense. I don't want to be rude, I'm just trying to understand. You can already open links in new tabs with : super drag 'n' drop (left or right to open in foreground or background), middle click, CTRL+Left click...isn't it enough to avoid "accidental" new window instead of a new tab ?


Maybe you should ask the team to add an option to force CentBrowser to use only ONE instance, so, even by clicking open in a new window, it would open in a tab. But if I remember, it was already asked and it's not possible (but I may be wrong for this statement  )

yes, thanks,
I'm asking because there was this option in firefox and I can't find an extension or something to do the same on chromium/chrome

As I understand, you are asking for SINGLE WINDOW MODE?
There is always only one browser window, all links will be opened in that window?

yes, is that possible?

We will look into it and check the workload.
