Splunk Search

How to get back event raw data to the search results preview in Splunk 6.1?

I have recently upgraded my version up to 6.1.3 and noticed such thing in Splunk UI, when doing a standard search.

Event raw data is no longer displayed in search results as the default field, so you have to expand the dropdown box manually and check it out there. It is not very convenient to observe a list of similar hosts, sources and sourcetypes instead of actual events, where you see the actual picture.

Is there any setting to return raw data back to the result table rows?

Earlier, we have the event raw data displayed in the search results table.

Like this:
Splunk 6.0 and earlier

And now it is hidden in the event details which is not comfortable:
Splunk 6.1 and later

It looks like you are using the "Table" view in the event window instead of the "List" view. Choose List in the dropdown above the events:
