How to customize my statistics table to display field-value pairs vertically in a column(s), not a single row in my dashboard?

I have a statistics table that only contains one row in my dashboard, but the table has more than 20 fields which are hard to view by end-users. I would like to find out if there is a workaround to layout the field name and its content vertically.

For instance, the current layout:

field_1    field_2       field_3       field_4
-------    -------       ---------     -------
 a            b             c             d

the new layout:

    field_1:  a
    field_2:  b
    field_3:  c
    field_4:  d

Or this:

    field_1:  a     field_3:  c
    field_2:  b     field_4:  d

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Try one of these

base search returning 1 row | untable dummy fields values | fields - dummy

*OR*

base search returning 1 row | transpose | rename column AS fields "row 1" as values

|transpose will lay them out vertically for you.

you'll probably want to use header_field and int=0 options.
