"If" statement - How can I get If/Else statements Horizontal?

This is probably super basic, but by default studio seems to set if statements with a vertical presentation. The horizontal presentation as shown in the academy tutorials is significantly more appealing. How can I set the “then / else” part of an if statement to appear horizontal as shown in the screenshot above?

Bonus points: can the horizontal presentation be set as default?

My first post was a screenshot of the academy. This is a screenshot of what my “if” statements look like. I have Studio version 2022.10.3.

Hi @Kyle.C

Welcome to the community

I like the idea. But its not possible… its ths ui change and …thats is available on a older version only

Only one variation available for you is the classic activity …which you can get by clicking on filter icon in activities panel and select show classic

Cheers

Hi @Kyle.C

Unfortunately you cant change the “style” of an activity, the if activity changed with the latest update

This change makes complex If scenarios a real mess.

Who is responsible for this disimprovement? Give us the old design back, please!

I partially agree with @Speziman, this new format allows for unnecessary long (vertical) if-activities. It would be even better if the developer can choose the format based on what their if-activity is going to look like.
If a wide then or else is expected, a vertical if-activity can be preferred. If a long then or else is expected, a horizontal if-activity would be a better fit.
In an earlier post changing the compatibility to “Windows - Legacy” was flagged as a solution. However, I think this is a work-around rather than a solution to the problem, since it promotes using a deprecated comptability mode.
