Resolution
This feature was introduced in the 1902 release to enable users to display background and trend elements in a grid layout using the UI5 responsive table. Each record will be displayed in a single row. This will help improve the readability of background element data, especially when there are multiple records in single background element.
Note: You will need to configure each background element in Configure People Profile that you want to display in a grid.
Note: The Block Layout option is only available to Background/Trend portlet. It's not possible to choose between List/Table view to other type of block.
