Hello,

I have different applications in my project & other application case Id’s(which is of type link) will be visible from one application. On click of the link, cases should be opened in the new window. which I am achieving with Run Script (Using window.open function).

I also have the requirement to right click on the case ID & to select Open link in new tab. Could anyone help me how to achieve this?

Note: I have seen that option is available on Open work item action & open work by Handle. Both are not useful for me.

Thanks in advance!

@DivyasriK please can you specify the version of Pega Platform which you are using?

We have found that the ability to right click on the menu and open in new window or new tab is likely a bug found in UI Kit only. In Cosmos applications the href attribute is removed from the menus and users are not allowed to right click and open in a new window.

Hello,

I achieved it by using right-click action on the link. Below are the steps to fix it

  • Go to actions of the link property
  • add right-click event.
  • In actions, add “Menu”. Select(or create) proper Navigation rule which is having all list of actions on right click.

Thanks!
