Wait a second... Could it be that you want to open also plain simple links, which don't have a target, also in a new tab by LEFT-click???
If that's it, the usual way for most people would be to use a middle-click or Shift+LeftClick or Ctrl+LeftClick, or one of the other variations described here:
http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/wiki/FAQ#mouseaccels
But may be that on some touchpads middle-clicking is a bit difficult and adding shift a bit bothersome, then a simple left-click could be easier...
How to do.... Perhaps in Edit>Configuration>Accelerators add this...
LButton = ID_OPEN_LINK_IN_NEW_TAB
Not sure at all if this doesn't have any undesired side-effects, but you could check if perhaps that was what you used in your old versions?
Ah yes, perhaps the shortcut could instead point to a little helper macro, that first checks if the mouse is over a link, and only then executes "open link", but otherwise keeps the default behaviour...
Something like
$LinkURL? id(ID_OPEN_LINK_IN_NEW_TA
: ...?LButton?... :cool:
Don't think that "LButton" works that way, hmmm... Then again, for which actions are simple left-clicks used in a browser, aside from opening links... for selecting text... for positioning in text boxes... perhaps that would still work, even though the accels is changed? Would need a little test...
