When I change the range of tagnames in the query window from say A1:A3 to A1:A4 (compressed data for example) in the bottom the column check is automatically changed to row which I don't want. is there a way to prevent this from happening?

This is especially unhandy when there are more columns used next to the data and they are overwritten by the changed query output. I would rather always use column as output direction. is there a setting that can do this?
