Sharepoint Column Headers missing in Collections

This started a few weeks ago, and I am unsure what setting to change to fix it. Whenever I create a collection I no longer see the Sharepoint Column Headings. I have turned off Explicit Column Selection. This is still what I get. I also used to be able to resize the columns, now I no longer have that ability. No idea what to do, as I don't seem to see any other messages on this issue.

Hi @hsfournier ,

I wish there was a setting - this is the new updated interface, however if you find a piece of code with the collection in it, click in the middle of the name and you can expand the contents at the bottom and also scroll both horizontally and vertically to see all the fields and records

Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.

Hi Warren,
Thank you for the fast reply, I was pulling out my hair thinking I had missed something. So frustrating, as I always refer back to my collections to help with design, now it's like your missing a quarter of the puzzle. I will use your workaround, and hope they fix this soon.

Thanks for reporting this issue! I passed it along to the appropriate team, and it should be fixed over the next few weeks.

Thanks @CarlosFigueira ,

As a well as the field headers, allow the column widths to show a reasonable amount of data - no issue scrolling horizontally if good data is available. What is there no on collections with a larger number of columns is almost useless. The same goes for Record/Table Variables - the old interface was much better (except for the 5 row limitation)
