Dashboard buttons/links -- open in new window?

Can someone tell me how to make the URL links in the button or link widget open in a new window? Tried HTML target code without success. Surely QuickBase has accounted for this somehow? can't find...

How about this?

Right click on the Button and click "open in new window"

Right clicking and selecting "open in new window" is a work around but not a solution. This is a very basic element. Has this ever been resolved? We have new users to the system and training staff to click on some buttons and right click on others is inefficient at best.

    This is the best current solution as posted above. I do agree it would be a nice enhancement to be able to set a button behaviour to open in new tab.

    Instead of buttons, if you use the Text widget, you can add a picture or text,  then highlight and choose to hyperlink it,  this will give you an option to open in another window.
