Open windows instead of tabs funcion with mouse gesture

Hi Guys,

I try find solution with my small problem I want open windows instead of tabs when i click for example bbc radio this will open in new window OK this is working. But I also used mouse gestures and when I use gesture call "new window" Opera opened new window off course but in new instance. I wondering if is possible to use this open in new tab like when we have disable option "open windows instead of tabs" ?

I try searching something like "Open new tab" etc. in mouse gesture configuration window but I have poor result...

Thanks in advance for help smile

Already exists, for new page (that is, tab). Try using Open link in new window if you want a new window. Alternatively, you can also change the function of middle-clicking a link to that instead of its current default (which is Open in background tab). Press Shift and click the middle button to change its action.

Not exactly look if I have enable option "Open windows instead of tabs" -> when i gesture down I have new window but in new instance of opera, I want only new tab, no new window with new instance of Opera. If I have disable option "Open windows instead of tabs" everything working OK.
But I want popup windows opened outside opera session like You have in firefox or chrome.

If you open right click and chose -> open link in new windows you will have new window with tab -> not popup window but full new instance opera....
I hope You understand me what I want to achieve wink
Thanks.

Did you try the existing gesture?

Open link in new page should open it in a new tab, not a new window.

Yes off course.

Look with existing gesture it's working ok but when you have disable option what I mentioned above " Open windows instead of tabs" . When You have turn on Opera open new windows + new instance. You can check if You want this and You understand me.

I want to simple open new popups windows outside opera like You have in firefox or chrome, and I don't want lose gesture functionality , because when I have active this function opera open new windows. I try find gesture call open new tab or something like that.... But I don't if this function is implemented... :|

For me, when I enable "Open windows instead of tabs" the gesture for Open in new page still does.

What exactly is the command associated with GestureDown in your setup?
