By default, Oracle SQL Developer only displays the results from your last query in the ‘Query Result’ tab. If you’d rather the results open up in a new tab after execution, you’ll need to enable this in the app:
Click Tools, and select Preferences…
Then navigate to Database > Worksheet
Click on Show query results in new tabs to enable this option.
