[Resolved] Fields not available in template unless I make the template the default

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

Occasionally I need to use multiple templates for a post type but unless I specify that the template is the default for the single display, all the fields of that post type are not available to me.

Solution:

Please edit the content template, in option "View with:", find and select a specific post, and test again, see my screenshot view-with.jpg

Occasionally I need to use multiple templates for a post type but unless I specify that the template is the default for the single display, all the fields of that post type are not available to me.
For example, the featured image field, unless I assign the template to be the default, I cannot add the featured image to the template.
