Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

Menu should suggest to open link in Cursor browser (by default, but should be configurable) when I click links from files or Canvas at Cursor.

I remember some menus already have this: Open in Browser, Open in Cursor Browser, but this should be consistent.

Operating System (if it applies)

MacOS

Hi Eugen,

I agree, this is currently a limitation in the IDE. In Glass, it defaults to opening links via whichever option you choose in Open Web Links in Browser.

But this Customizability is not offered currently in the IDE. Interested in hearing some other voices weigh in here too.

Can you check now?

I may have been on a nightly build last week but it’s now live and updated on a wider roll out…

Not present yet on 3.3.12 MacOS. Will keep waiting.

That’s the correct version! Just to clarify you’re checking from Settings in the new Agents view right? If not, make sure to open the Agents View and then go to Settings please, because this option is not visible if you’re in the IDE → Cursor Settings.

Thanks for the clarification.
I was checking in the IDE. :face_in_clouds:
I confirm this setting you have above is showing in the Agents view. :+1:.
For my scenario it makes total sense to expose this in the IDE : Agent is generating a dashboard that I want to open (and see the rendering).
I would like : “Open with Default Browser”. But this is a P2 since I can achieve this differently.
