Default Option for "RECENT PROJECTS" to open in NEW TAB

Having a list of recently opened projects is super handy and I use it a bunch to open recent sessions.

When I go to File -> Recent Projects and select a new project... it replaces the project in the current tab with whatever project I've selected.

However, a lot of the time I find I'm working in a session and want to open a recently used project in another tab as a reference.

I'd love it if there were a way where I could see a list of recent projects and have them open in a new tab instead of replacing what I'm currently working on.

Perhaps it would be in the menu system File -> Open recent project in new tab

Perhaps its just an option you can check under General Settings similar to "Create new project tab when opening media from finder" ... something like "Create new project tab when opening recent projects"


I know I should just create a new project and and then hit recent project, but often I forget, and then I realize it's trying to close my current project I'm working in and I'm like "Dammit! Wait! I did this wrong!" Or sometimes, because I've recently saved, it just shuts down my current project I'm working on and I'm like "Wait! Come back! I'm not done with you yet!"


Anyway, that's my latest nitpick. Thanks for listening!

You might find my ReaLauncher script useful for this (see link in my signature).

Oh yeah! I forgot about that! I was using it for awhile and then stopped for some reason. Definitely solves the issue!
