Description

Originally submitted to Google Code by piotr.br... on 26 Jan 2011

It would be nice if there would be a possibility to display a teas case or a keyword in a new tab lets say by right-clicking a tescase/keyword and selecting "open in new tab" option or something similar. ATM all can be displayed in "Edit" tab

Research direction

The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing how the current Edit tab displays test cases and keywords, then determine how a right-click “open in new tab” action should support multiple simultaneous Edit tabs. Done means both test cases and keywords can be opened separately without replacing existing tabs.
