Sets focus to newly opened tabs.

This extension forces Chrome to set focus to all new tabs when they are created, a behavior previously not seen when a link was forced by the user to open in a new tab.

The location bar should get focus now when you open the New Tab, unless you use an addon that redirects to a different URL. Please let my know if you have any other issues with this.

Tampletop, what exactly are you looking for? I'm the developer for this extension, so if I know what you want, I'll try to put it in. Paul...I'm on it!

Bob Elsasser 2022-05-09 Thanks for this extension. Was using another similar extension but it has become unreliable (Tab Activate).
Darbo Scalante 2022-04-29 I use to work like this in Safari. Now this extension brings that subtle yet amazing functionality to Chrome. Big thank you.
Len Kowalik 2022-04-25 Had it on a previous Chromebook, and had difficulty finding it to add to my new one. As many others have said, I don't know why this isn't a toggle setting in Chrome. Google, are you listening? April 2022 update: Stopped working, removed and reinstalled, working.
mp3talon 2022-04-16 Good for CTRL + T but doesn't replicate exactly how it is on Firefox which is what i wanted. Example on Firefox if you middle-click the YouTube logo on youtube.com it will open a new tab but not focus on it.
Esmo 2022-03-29 It just works
