How to switch from 3 column pictures in gallery back to 2

[Lala1213]

How do I switch from 3 column pictures in a gallery's album back to 2? I accidently swiped out but can't swipe in to make it 2 again. I can press down on the pic and it shows me the 2 columns, but the second I life my finger it goes back to 3 columns again.

I just tried it, with that list I can set 2, 3, 5 columns, but I can't set 4 columns if I have that list on the left. It's software related, I don't think the store can help you, nor can I, try contacting Samsung support through the Samsung Members app

So the store didn't even try to help - they said no we just deal with plans. I need to go to my usual one, they usually try to help me if I have phone issues (which is not common really). I did call Samsung, they didn't know either. It had the 2 column pics last night with the album column on the left side. Somehow I accidentally changed it to 3 and don't know why I can't change it back. My brother took a video - hoping the  attachment works.

Sorry I clicked on something  and this is not the solution. Apparently I keep clicking on things incorrectly! lol

Not sure the video will post. 😞

Try this- remove that list of folders, increase the columns to 3, then restore that list of folders and you'll have 2 columns and that list again

 

 I prefer without list of folders, you can have bigger columns

Interesting...how do I restore that list of folders though?

Tap near the end of the screen and swipe to the right.Just tap, swipe right, and lift your finger.

Hi again, can you believe I accidentally put it back to 3 pics and can't it back to 2 again? GEEZ. I am doing what I thought I did last time you advised, with the pic above. See the video I posted before. Not sure how I did it before to get it to 2 pics. But the video is accurate as to what it is doing again now. 

How do I do what you said..."Try this- remove that list of folders, increase the columns to 3, then restore that list of folders and you'll have 2 columns and that list again"

Thank you!
