Hi all,

Quick question. My users quite like opening their list of activities in new tabs when going through their list. I understand right clicking and the open in new tab is deprecated and that we can still use CTRL click to open a record in a new tab. The problem comes about with activities as when you CTRL click on a activity it opens a modal dialog instead of opening it in a new tab and I don't see anyplace in which I can turn this off.

So currently when I CTRL click this email activity. It opens it modally. Is there a way to turn this off.

I have the same question (1)

Hey bud,

Yea this all works with any other grid view but activities. It always opens it modally. I've tried Shift + Ctrl + Click, CTRL+Click. Nothing works it always opens it modally.

Hey bud,

Yes I know there's a open in new window button now but my users like to have a list of activities they need to do and then open a bunch of them in new tabs and work their way through the tabs for each activity. Using the open in new window button would require them to click the activity and then click the open in new tab. One step extra for what should of been a simple thing to do..

If nothing out of the box is possible then I might have to experiment with a ribbon javascript button.

Hi Mike,

Yes, creating Ribbon button and adding script will work.
