How are views loaded on a form?

I know that views are loaded on a list using context menu as shown below;:

the same is not true for forms.

I tried asking chatgpt/claude not none of them knew how views are dynamically loaded on a form.

Views are also loaded on form using Context menu. open any existing record and right click on form top to open form level context menu and you will see - Views there.

I dont think they are loaded using context menu.
I opened up context menu b169dd7f0a0a0bbb0062fb97a5ea1e1c and changed its name to View33 and the change is only seen in the list, not the form.

if the views were loaded using context menu there would be a script for it somewhere but I cant find it.

 

did you find it?

Right click on form header in any existing Record and see Views options are there in the context menu so I guess it comes from Context menu only.
