Open Record in New Tab

A one-click 'New tab' button on every list row and kanban card — a real link you can middle-click, right-click or copy.

Overview

About this app

Odoo can open a record in a new tab with a keyboard shortcut, but nothing on screen tells you so. Most users never find it — they click a record, go back, lose their place in a long list, and click the next one.

Open Record in New Tab shows a small New tab button when you hover a list row or kanban card. It is a real link: click it, middle-click it, or right-click it to copy the record's address and share it.
