I don't know of a way, but ALT-T seems to cycle through the Listing Modes:

Full File List
Brief File List
Long File List <-- this one is single panel
User Defined

This begs a question:

In my panels.ini I have this:

...
list_mode=user
user_format=name|size
user_status0=half type,name,|,size,|,perm
user_status1=half type,name,|,size,|,perm
user_status2=half type,name,|,size,|,perm
user_status3=name
user_status4=half type,name,|,size,|,perm
user_mini_status=1
...

What are these user_status[0-4] lines for? Apparently user_status3 is the 
format of the user_mini_status, but what are the others for? I can change them, 
but they don't seem to do anything.

I have a guess that they have something to do with this:

static const char *
panel_format (WPanel * panel)
{
    switch (panel->list_type)
    {
    case list_long:
        return "full perm space nlink space owner space group space size space 
mtime space name";

    case list_brief:
        return "half 2 type name";

    case list_user:
        return panel->user_format;

    default:
    case list_full:
        return "half type name | size | mtime";
    }
}

Perhaps sometime in the misty past, the user was allowed to define these 
himself, instead of being hard-coded. Come to think of it, that would be a nice 
feature.
