I think this is more of a browser related issue, not Windchill itself.

It appears that you're using Chrome which doesn't appear to have the setting but Firefox does. There may be an extension  you can get to enable that functionality in Chrome.

Your help very much appreciated. You are correct. It is a browser issue. I added the 'Tabs to the Front' extension in Chrome, tested it and it fixed my issue.

In Chrome you can also just press the shift bar the middle mouse button.  It will switch to the tab.
