As it is now double clicking on a detail tab in universal does something that, is as I see it confusing.
One of the things is that I suddenly have another page, and that I don’t have an option to go back to where I was. Accidentally double clicking a tab results in being lost. There are also some bugs I noticed in the software factory; if you double click on a tab with an active search filter the zoom window doesn’t show the search filter but does apply it.
Web and universal are different then a windows interface and I don’t think that this functionality will ever work the same in universal as it does in windows.
I would like to have the option to create a workflow which opens an item after double clicking in a big almost screen size popup window with a close button in the upper right corner.

This might already be possible
This might already be possible with a workaround I did not try; create a screen type without detail tabs, create a detail tab, open the detail tab with a workflow starting with double click, add a big back action button in the upper right corner, add the back route to the workflow.
The problem with this solution is that it will create a big spider web workflow, if you want all entities to generally be clickable and generally show a popup window, and you have for example 10 different entities which relate to each other, …, I don’t know if someone can think of a smarter way but I end up with 10 forward tasks with each 10 table tasks, 10 table variants for each entity and 10 backward tasks with table tasks for each entity, and a workflow which can be started by 100 different table tasks.

The big challenge behind this idea is to make this possible with less “low code”. My first idea is that you could add a checkbox “Zoom on doubleclick” (in the SF) for all subjects / variants for each “zoom” detail. That way my example above reduces to one detail mapping in the forward relationships, but Universal has to remember the back route and show it in the interface.
The result should be that it is possible to generalize opening popups with detail information.
(It is also possible not to reuse the zoom screen type and add a popup screen type to all the entities, it is more work but might be cleaner).
