Outlook View XML Layout Settings

I've been trying to set the Outlook Layout to Compact for all the folders. I managed to recursively loop thru all the folders, but i cannot find any information to what setting i need to set to change the layout.

I have compared the XML of a Single Line layout vs from the Compact layout. On office 2019, i found the XML node to make this happen (<multiline></multiline>) but on office 365 the only difference i get when comparing both XML is the <previewstyle/>.

But the weird part is that when i remove this node and load it (and apply) to the XML for the current view, it simply doesn't do what it is supposed (which is to set the layout to compact).

I don't find any information anywhere for this... does anyone know how this can be done programmatically?

Many thanks in advance!
