Calibre 3.47 -changes custom columns

It seems Calibre 3.47 update changed how my custom metadata columns are displayed.

I had them as two columns with list of headings, now it is just 1 column filling the entire screen with my custom headings in rows.

How can I get them back the way I had them without rolling back to Calibre 3.46?

Believe me, Calibre did not change the DB, so your column is still available. It may be hidden or off the end of the screen.

Preference: Add you own columns: <tic (or un-tic) and reorder those you want to see.

Is this in Edit Metadata? There is a bug fix related to that feature in version 3.47.1.

The data is there but instead of in double column format, they're now in 1 column with 12 rows instead of 6 rows on each side.

Maybe:
-->Preferences -->Behavior --> Edit Metadata (single layout):
