Create PrefBar Button

Windows 7
SeaMonkey 2.53.20
PrefBar 7.1.1

I successfully created several PrefBar buttons in the past.  However, I
do not know how to create a button to clone the current Web page.  A
clone button inherent in PrefBar no longer works.

To clone now, requires that I hold down the Ctrl key and then navigate
on the menu bar to [View > Reload].  Can someone suggest how to create a
button for this?

To clone the current web page you can middle-click the reload icon
(works on Linux and Windows).

Hmm ~ I think  I must be misreading that one Ant.

ctrl+left-click/reload only opens the menu bar settings popup.
Also fails in a plain profile...

Middle-click/reload, or ctrl+right-click/reload, both work ok.

SM 2.53.20 Win64:
ctrl+left-click/reload - clones current tab to new background tab
ctrl+shift+left-click/reload - clones current tab to new foreground tab

Yeah,  I think it works that way, but that’s what I prefer. Sometimes i
load several links for review later.
