[Discord] Party Geometry Doesn't Respect Max_Columns in Live

[Mapkov2]

Environment

MSUF 6.12. WoW 12.1 Party Frames

Reproduction steps

Party/Raid Frames > Party > Geometry > Set Units per column to 1 and Max_Columns to 5. You will only see one player in the party.

Error or evidence

I have opened a PR with the fix on the repo. I hope that helps. If not, please let me know so I can figure how to contribute properly in the future.

Version check

Reported version 6.12 matches the latest stable release.

Ok this is kinda still "bugged" but also why not use grow direction

And is there something wrong with the fix in the PR?

The way your party frames grow. In the geometry settings on the right.
See my screenshot in general chat (though that's raid).
So you have the option to put the party horizontal that way.

Okay I see. This definitely works, though it's less intuitive to me. If this is the intended path, then I would remove units per column and max columns from the party frames entirely. I'm not sure what the benefit is to having them, though I'm happy to hear if I'm missing something. Regardless, the main reason this became a problem for me is because the preview respects the column/row toggle, while live does not, so that would mean the preview needs to be modifed as well.
