 * Hi everybody,
 * I’m trying to set an external link to open in new tab in Elementor. After highlighting
   a part of text bloc in left sidebar, I’m tying to click on the wrench to show
   link options, but I got an error in my console : “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot 
   read property ‘show’ of undefined”
 * Do someone know why ? I’m on Version 2.9.8
