New tab ⌘T whilst a video is running in fullscreen

Ahmed

Hi,

Is it possible to make the browser automatically switch to the openly new tab without manually having to go leave the full screen mode, Safari automatically jumps to the new tab (even if there's a video in fullscreen).

Regards,

Cannabat

I get the same behaviour as you. Interestingly, even when this setting is enabled, which I would have expected to do what you are suggesting:

Cannabat Thanks for checking. It should do it even without that setting.

Open a webpage with full screen support (e.g. a full-screened Youtube video)
Press "Command + T"

Expected:
A new tab is opened and focus is given to the address bar of the new tab. (Safari)

Actual:
A new tab is opened but focus remains on the full screen webpage.

On 129.3-rc, I tested pressing ⌘+T when a YouTube video was in full screen and this correctly resulted in Orion opening a new tab, and switching focus to it. The bug appears to still occur on -beta so this is yet another issue that can be added to the massiveNext Release list @Vlad

I also tested both versions of When opening a link in a new tab, make it active and focus was switched to the new tab in both cases, as users would expect.
