'Is there a way of creating more than 3 inlined fields in a discord.js embeded message?

I am trying to create an embed for a discord bot using node.js. I want the embed to have 4 inlined fields so that there effectively are 4 columns with and an arbitrary number of rows in each column. When i use the following code:

var embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
    .addFields(
        { name: "col1", value: 'test1', inline: true},
        { name: "col2", value: 'test2', inline: true},
        { name: "col3", value: 'test3', inline: true},
        { name: "col4", value: 'test4', inline: true},
    )

it outputs this: Output

As you can see, the fourth column is automatically put in another line instead of in another column. So my question is: is it possible to avoid this, and if so, how?

Sadly this is not possible, embeds are not easy to work with and often you won't be able to get the result you are seeking.

Solution 2:[2]

Currently embeds can't have more then 3 fields inline and afaik discord dont plan to increase the limit.

Solution 3:[3]

Embeds are rendered client-side, so the maximum number of columns can be even lower than 3 depending on the field size. I'm working on a bot and when I check the embeds from my phone, it will only render one column at a time even if it enough screen size.
