1) It is possible to open a folder in a new tab if you SHIFT + Click in the History and in SpecialSystemFolders.
Wouldn't this be handy also in Breadcrumb, Hotlist, Drives, Favorite Folders and Favorite Files?
2) It is possible to open a folder in a new tab with a MMB click in the tree or the catalog. It would be great if this would also be possible if I MMB click on a folder in the list.

1) Sounds good to me, but not sure if one can use accelerators in context menus. Would be great though.
TIP: hold control while normal or middle-click to open tabs in background.
This already works better than you expect. middle-click in the tree or the catalog opens new tab. or simply shift+click.2) It is possible to open a folder in a new tab with a MMB click in the tree or the catalog.
TIP: hold control while normal or middle-click to open tabs in background.
TIP: Hold shift and double-click on any folder in the list.It would be great if this would also be possible if I MMB click on a folder in the list.

Re: Mouse Click and Tabs
Hey, good observation! I added this "anti-feature" (disregard Shift) in v5.10.0048 - 2006-09-26 11:00 because hard-coded KS like Shift+Backspace would interprete the Shift "as open in new tab". Since CKS this is not necessary anymore! So I removed it now.bergfex wrote:1) It is possible to open a folder in a new tab if you SHIFT + Click in the History and in SpecialSystemFolders.

PS: the 2nd wish... not so easy... maybe later...

Yes, that's what I meant with a MMB click (middle mouse button).serendipity wrote:middle-click in the tree or the catalog opens new tab.
It would just be easier for me (and faster) to do this with a MMB click. Again it would be coherent throughout the program.serendipity wrote:TIP: Hold shift and double-click on any folder in the list.
