Target windows for links in Rise
Hi Pieter!
Are you using a button to link to another lesson in the same Rise course? If so, that lesson will open in the same browser tab. Can you tell us more about why you would want the lesson to open in a new tab? What situation would you use that feature in?
Hi Alyssa, both - the customer and ourselves want the trainee to be able to return to the *same location* in the original page, after clicking to visit another page.
Right now, if you click a link on a page, which opens in the same tab and you then hit "back", you shoot back to the top of the previous page, instead of your original location on the page, where you clicked that link.
The simplest solution seems to me to open the linked page in a new tab, so that when you close that new tab, you drop back to the original tab, which is still on the original location on the page. This applies to both external websites or internal links within Rise courses.
This is a standard functionality of a lot of modern websites, and people simply seem to expect it.
