possible to automatically create new tab with schHiDescend()?

MOSFET

I have the schHiDescend() command tied to a custom mouse stroke.  Whenever I try to descend into an instance, I get a popup menu asking me if I want to open the view in a new tab, current tab, or new window.  Is there any way for me to permanently specify "new tab" for this menu so I don't have to keep clicking it every time I descend into an instance?


Thanks

    How to avoid pop-up window during descend edit or descend read in an iterated instance

     

    It specifies how to avoid pop-up windows during descend edit or descend read in an iterated instance.  Here is the function call you can use to accomplish this after selecting an instance:

    geSwitch(hiGetCurrentWindow() "r" car(geGetSelSet()) 0 1 1 )

    That works, but it doesn't seem to work in conjunction with openining instances in new tabs.  Whenever I use the above function, it switches into the instance in the same page instead of a separate tab.  Does anyone know how to combine these two features?  Is there a way to make new tabs apply to switching into instances as well as descending into them?
