Why can't I open documents in a new tab any more?

When viewing My Documents, if I opened a document it used to open in a new tab. Great! I usually have multiple documents open at once.

Now, it opens in the same browser tab, so I have to open a new tab, go to Lucid, choose another document, and repeat.

It’s not possible to right click and open in a new tab, as this functionality is disabled in the web app.

I can’t see an open in the settings which controls this.

Is there a way to get this functionality back?

Hi ​@ibluy, we updated the default behavior to open in the same tab and decreased the loading time, but you should still be able to right click and open in a new tab or click the three-dot menu and open in a new tab. That is what the option I’m highlighting in this image does. Is that not working for you?
