Right-click the table object and select 'Count' on the current versions.
Previously, iirc it showed the message 'Refresh table to count' in the
actual count field, so you did a right-click -> Refresh.

No. 1000 is below the default threshold, so it'll get counted. If you
lower the threshold, it will say 'not counted' in the actual count
field.
