Give the option for Shortcut Widgets to open link in same tab or new tab

hlc

Currently shortcut widgets operate differently depending on if you are opening a Smartsheet item or an external link. Smartsheet items open in the same tab. External links open in a new tab. You can have the option for Smartsheet items to open in a new tab by just linking it as external, but you have no option to open external links in the same tab. I use this dashboard to link forms because they don't count as Smartsheet "items" and form users end up with multiple tabs open.

Recommending adding the ability for links on Dashboards with the Shortcut Widget to select to open links in new windows.

I would find this very useful also. All you would need is a check box ("Open in new tab") in the widget behavior edit screen screen to add that option.

Is that possible to do?

I need this too, but Smartsheet will take 5 years to implement this tiny setting.
