Data grid with columns as rows on left? A vertical list?

I want to display a vertical list of rows and values.

Something like this:

The closest I can find is a multicard, but it never lets me do the field name on the left.

The new card visual will at least let me do the field name on top and the value underneath, but are there any other options?

I just want to display one record at a time and a few basic fields.

Building text boxes by hand and lining them up is a bit too labor intensive and destroys page load performance.

@sasdfasdfsad I; 'm confident with reference labels you will able to use it. It is very powerful.

@sasdfasdfsad I have to check, there are tons of settings, maybe there is one for alignment. You have to search thru it, if not maybe this can be put on the ideas forum for enhancement.

The only issue I have now is that the values are right aligned.  I can't make both sides left aligned:

as opposed to being able to specify the alignment so I get more like:

That bit is most unexpected.  I assume there is no way to address that?

@sasdfasdfsad have you tried a new card visual with newly introduced reference labels?

Not using reference labels, just the standard labels and callouts.

I'll try using the reference label field and see if that lets me manipulate it a bit more.  Thanks!
