How to make the hotkey "Create new uniqe note" create the note in a new tab?

What I’m trying to do

The core plugin “Unique Note Creator” let’s you set up only one hotkey, “Create New Unique Note”. But when I press this hotkey, it creates the note under the current tab. Usually in my current tab I have a note that I am reading and want to create a new unique note about it.

Is there a setting where I can toggle whether the new unique note will open in a new tab instead of the current one?

Things I have tried

I looked through the settings and could not find anything.

There is this post from earlier,

It requires me to use my mouse, but that defeats the whole purpose of setting a hotkey !!!

P.S: I think making the unique note in new tab makes sense to me because of how I use obsidian. I usually keep my tabs “Stacked”. So, if I open a note in new tab, my current note is still visible.

I can’t search now to try to find it but I’m sure a Commander macro has been mentioned on the forum.
So you make a macro in the plugin: 1. open new tab 2. add a wait of 200ms or more 3. create unique note
Bind the hotkey to the macro command.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into it and see if I can figure it out.
