Virtual Column List, opens weird Detail view

Hi there,

I resort to asking here since i have no idea if appsheet is just trolling me or what.
I'm making a very simple CRM and, when the CS Agent opens a ticket form, they select a customer to attach that ticket to.
When they enter the e-mail of the existing customer, i have two virtual columns show up: Related_Inbounds and Related_Outbounds. Both look into the rows of tables Inbound and Outbound respectively and bring a list of related (by [E-mail]) tickets:

The data in the tables is correct, and everything seems fine. However, as it was too easy to be true, when I open one of the rows from the VC's table, I get this weird pop-up view:

This DOES NOT happen in the App preview within the builder (Phone and Tablet). It does happen with Desktop preview and browser link, deployed and prototype, with admin and user account.

The view is as if it was on Update mode (buttons and dropdows, text boxes etc) but you can only touch buttons. Dropdowns don't drop, but clicking the X in the field deletes the entry. You cannot edit text boxes, and you can't text select anything in the view (like if i wanted to ctrl+c the IdTicket from the top or any other field, you can't select it).
It also doesn't have a Save button but a "Done" button instead, and changes within that view affect the VC tables preview but do not update the actual row in the spreadsheets.

Crazy stuff. It's not the Detail view nor the Form view nor an Edit view. There's no finding it in the UX panel. I tried updating the actual Detail view to see if that pushed it, but nothing.

Then i realised the previews in the builder work just fine, opening the actual Detail view:

This is where i got defeated, because if it works just fine in the builder then i assume it's got something to do with appsheet just straight up hating me lol.

Whatever tip, trick, or advice would be immensely appreciated.

Hi, 

In the editor, inside the view, you can see which "strange popup view" it corresponds to through the bottom area of โ€‹โ€‹the preview app.

Thank you for your reply. 
The thing is, when the pop up is active, it doesn't show any view name other than the form's:

"Inbound_Form 2" is the view at the back of that pop-up. 
Moreover, I've been applying changes to the Detail view to see what happens, and for example if i change the detail view to "Side by side" it applies it to the pop-up (both preview and the one in desktop that looks weird). So it is the Detail view (otherwise changes wouldn't show), it's just broken in the desktop i guess. Huge bug as far as i can reason.
