Description Wouter Bolsterlee (uws) 2006-03-13 19:33:25 UTC 
Doing a ctrl-middle click on a bookmark in the menu or on the toolbar (both bookmark and topic dropdown) does NOT open a new tab for the page. Ctrl-left click and middle-click (without any modifiers) both open a new tab, so I guess the combination of those should too...
Comment 1 Diego Escalante Urrelo (not reading bugmail) 2006-08-16 07:54:50 UTC 
Is it ok to consider ctrl+middle click the same as middle click?
I don't think this is a bug.
Comment 2 Wouter Bolsterlee (uws) 2006-08-16 08:15:53 UTC 
Imho it should open a new tab as well.
Comment 3 Christian Persch 2006-08-16 12:05:42 UTC 
Ctrl+left-click is equivalent to middle-click; I don't think ctrl+middle-click should do anything special. If you're already pressing ctrl, why not just press left instead of middle?

Because I make mouse mistakes al fscking day :)

Makes Ephy open links in new tabs if Control + Middle click is pressed.

One liner, just adds an OR to check for GDK_CONTROL_MASK.
Comment 6 Christian Persch 2006-12-04 22:01:39 UTC 
I guess this is ok, at least until we assign a dedicated function to ctrl+middle which is rather unlikely :)
