When using the Launch Parameter as follows:

launch("http://google.co.uk") it always launching in a pop out window with very recuced functionality such as Maximising the window.

It there a way of adapting the launch command so that it launches in a new tab or a window with the full functionality?

Thanks in advance

    Hi BenGillard, can you try this ?

    <<Launch("https://www.google.com/")>>

    and

    <<Launch("https:\\www.google.com\")>>

    ?

    without the << >>

    they both work for me, they open a new tab in the current window with the full browser functionalities, also can I ask you which browser are you using ?

    I'm using Google Chrome and it works like I said.

    I've also tried this in the web browser and mobile client.  Both open the web browser in a new tab/Window. Have you enabled/disabled any of the advanced or preview functionality in the app?

    Hi @Pstork1, these are my Active preview and beta functionalities, I mean, all these are Set On.

    Note, I 've translated them by myself from italian, because even if my PC's main language setting is en-US, powerapps web and the W10 app still both work with italian language, for some reason....

     

    PREVIEW FUNCTIONALITIES
    Delayed loading
    Use OnStart rule non lockable
    Select explicit column
    Improved rendering (final validation)
    Advanced SaveData and LoadData functions
    Optimization of the control property

    Concurrent function more reliable

    EXPERIMENTAL FUNCTIONALITIES
    Formula level errors management
    Use longer cache's timeout and update in background
    Test the Advanced Group control
    Web Barcode scanner
    Components
