Issue

We've configured maxColumns =>3 in editviewdefs.php and detailviewdefs.php which works fine in theme7.
Now customer want to switch to suiteP. And there are only 2 columes displayed.
More columes would be greate because this theme has too much whitspaces.

Expected Behavior

schould work, like in theme suite7

Actual Behavior

Possible Fix

Steps to Reproduce

increase maxColumns in the 2 files and run quickrepair.
switch between themes

In case anyone wants to work on this, they probably need to change the Detail and Edit view tpl's to move the screen structure to be handled by Bootstrap columns.

A draft example of that for the Admin screen is here:
