Support “Open in new tab / window” for all buttons
Ramon Schouten
Currently, not all buttons in HelloID support standard browser options such as
“Open link in new tab”
or “Open link in new window”
.This is especially noticeable when working with larger lists, such as Products or Business Rules. Users often want to open multiple items in parallel, but are forced to open them one by one in the same tab, losing their current search or filter each time.
Suggested Improvement
Add support for standard browser link behavior to all relevant buttons in HelloID, so actions can be opened using:
- Ctrl + click
- Middle mouse click
- “Open link in new tab” / “Open link in new window”
Benefit
- Consistent navigation behavior across the UI.
- Faster workflow when working with many items.
- No loss of search terms or filters.
- Improved overall user experience.

Ramon Schouten Thank you for your feedback
I understand your feature request. That said, this isn’t a straightforward change to implement.
HelloID’s modules are developed separately, and the UI elements (such as buttons) aren’t always implemented in the same way across modules. For example, one button might navigate to a new page, while another opens a modal on the current page. In some areas, specific URL routing is also not available, which means it’s not always possible to navigate directly to a page or modal.
To help us better estimate the required effort, we ask that a separate feature request ticket is created per HelloID module where this functionality is missing. Each ticket should clearly describe the relevant page and button or action involved.
If there is sufficient interest across modules, we can further explore the possibilities and evaluate next steps.
Thank you in advance.
