'Shortcut to open table schema in new tab by clicking on table name in BigQuery editor

I have the following in the BigQuery editor:

SELECT *
FROM `project.dataset.table`

I remember there used to be a shortcut similar to CMD+CLICK on the table name that would open the properties of table in a new tab showing the table schema, details and preview.

Is it gone or how do you do it?

EDIT: Apparently the feature works again once you "DISABLE EDITOR TABS" at the top of the BigQuery console. Looks like this is a missing feature when editor tabs are enabled.

EDIT2: Looks like the feature is working again also when editor tabs are enabled.

Try to enclose your table with using `` and then use CMD + CLICK.
