<![CDATA[opening new tab when clicking on link]]>One thing I can not find on Opera is a way to open new tab when clicking on a link.
On most browsers if you click on a link there is an option to make it open in new tab. It seems on Opera you cannot do this, which seems pretty useless. I would have thought this is a basic operation which should be available.

At the moment every time I have to right click on link for "open in new tab", which is not exactly convenient and very irritating.

So if there is a way to do it would be grateful for any advice because I cannot seem to find any settings to enable new tabs when clicking on link.

Us humans being creatures of habits once we get used to things, always sub consciously use what we normally do...so have to train the brain "Opera is Middle Click !!" 🙂

Try middle click on the link.

Tested millions of times and it works 🙂
