Note: A phrase "External Page" will be displayed in the Salesforce Console if this feature is turned off.

If the Show Unsaved Mark feature is turned on, an asterisk mark ( * ) will appear on the title of the tab to alert users that there are unsaved data in the page. A Confirmation Dialogue Box will appear when trying to close the tab. This feature is suggested to be used when creating a new page or editing a page.
Note: The mark ( * ) will not display if the feature is turned off even in there are unsaved data in the page.
- Select from New Tab or Existing Tab when opening a new page
Page transition is allowed when Salesforce Console is active (available if the Use in the Salesforce Console feature is turned on).
The page will open in a New Tab if the Open in New Window property is turned on.
