Wordpress: Ultimate Posts Widget display post in columns - php

Question

I'd love to have the option to have my posts displayed in multiple columns/rows (so that I could have several thumbnails/posts horizontally laid out next to each other, instead of only being posted below one another).
I tried changing the layout but sadly nothing happened
can you suggest something?
Thank you guys :D
