Label [production.bom] data table size usability

Label [production.bom] data table size usability

@andrade_david added this to a new idea as you requested.

I have been trying to use [production.bom] and have a few comments.  First off, I love that this info is available for labels. That said, the formatting of the table and the current text size options makes this hard to practically use on standard labels (4"x6" in our case) if you have more than a handful of items in the BOM.  The fixed column width for the second column makes the description take up multiple lines and I can not utilize the white space on the right of my label.  Here are some examples of an product with a 12 item BOM using this.  I also put in the example of the work-around I was using where I would copy the BOM from the materials/sub-products tab and paste it into the notes section as a comparison. I am not sure if there is a way to have a parameter for the column width in the label code or if the default width could be wider, or if the table would scale to fit the width of the label, etc.  Even a smaller font would help out some on this although some printers will struggle clearly printing too fine of details.  Thank you.
