CTRL+Click on Issues in the Issue Navigator does not open them in a new tab

    • Icon: Bug Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Icon: Low Low
    • None

      Summary

      Normally CTRL+Click in a browser would open the URL in a new tab, however OnDemand is displaying a loading wheel and then the issue opens in the same tab.

      Environment

      • Windows ONLY.
      • Chrome 25
      • Firefox 19

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Open the Issue Navigator and search for an issue.
      2. Ctrl + left click on the issue link for the key or the summary column.

      Expected Results

      It opens this in a new tab.

      Actual Results

      It opens it in the same tab.

      Notes

      This was not reproducible on 5.2.7 or 6.0-m8.

      As a workaround the mouse middle-click button can be used (this will open it in a new tab using Chrome or FF).

            Also only partial fix perceivable here - e.g. CTRL+Click on a link inside an issue description (view mode, not edit mode) does open the link's target issue in same instead new tab, while clicking on link in header does open in new tab.

            @Atlassian team: There are many related issues - as we users don't have required rights to link & organize them, would you please do? In current state, it's hard to decide which of them is still considered by you, which to vote for, where to comment about current state & needs, which are about the same (dupe or regression) and which are related only,... For example, see https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-76492.

            This suddenly stopped working for me. Cmd + Click on links from my Jira Dashboard used to open in a new tab, but now they replace the current tab. Cmd + Click still works fine on other sites and apps...it's just Jira.

            EDIT 12/Apr/2021 - It seems to be working again 🎉

            It is 2021 and Jira Cloud still does this with preview links.

            This is an irritant, also occurs when ctrl+clicking the "admin" link if you're already on the admin page. Although "open in new tab" from the context menu does work. (Chrome 25, jira 5.2.5).
