Error Messages
no error message
Steps to Reproduce

2.go to Manager Tools.
3.Select ADD Topic Link from Education Topic Management.
4. Work Object is open in Home Tab.not in a new tab.
Resolution
Root cause:
The WorkArea Gadget configured in the Portal is a Tabless Dynamic Container.
The Tabs which are visible in the top are not actual Tab Headers instead it is Recent Gadget configured to be shown in Horizontally.
So on clicking a link a new document is being opened but a new entry in recents is not getting added.
This is because OpenWorkByURL Action doesn't supports Recents.
Solution:
To use pega.desktop.createNewWork function instead of openWorkByURL.
