On forms, the reference lookup icon ([Omitted image "SearchIconHeisenberg.png"] Alt text: Core UI reference lookup icon) appears by editable reference fields. Clicking the reference lookup icon displays a list of records on the referenced table.
When List v3 is enabled, the list appears in a popover. Otherwise, the list appears in a pop-up window.
