Can we make these quick links open in a new window/tab?

We actually don't support that option in our modern parts, instead trying to create a more consistent experience across all parts/pages. If the content is on the same site, it opens in the same window. If it's on another site/external/etc. it opens in a new tab.

    John,

     

    We have a link in another site that is not opening in a new tab. Any ideas?

    PLEASE can you give the option to Open in a New Tab!

     

    It's an option for text links, so why not Quick Links??

     

    It's very frustrating having to go back and forth for certain links. And if you're saying it should automatically open external links in new tabs it doesn't for us.
