Hello!

We have gotten a request internally to see if we could allow for opening courses found in catalogs in a new tab with an action. As in a normal click still opens the course in the same window, but some kind of variation (like right click menu) allows for opening in a new tab.

We currently use the Catalog widget with Card style display.

Is there any option for this that is known? Or if we used another display style? This is the current options for right-click - it could be another thing besides right click!

Thank you for help in advance!

I don’t think that is something that the system can do?  I played with the different display types for the catalog widget too, and there is no option for opening the course itself in a new window.  The only thing I can think is if you use a view option that lists the Catalog name on the widget and it is a link that you can right click and open in a new window.  In the example below I have the course catalog on a widget using the Steam view:

Thank you ​@Annarose.Peterson - appreciate your insights! Unfortunate that there doesn’t seem to be a workaround to this but it is appreciated to know about the option for the catalog itself at least. Thank you!
