Table View not very space efficient #17

Description

It seems like the table view would be most useful as a concise view of all the orders such that each line takes up a small amount of space especially vertical space. To make the table display this way you have to make the part name short. I tried putting the extra information in the notes field but that gets display as a single (very long) line.

For example:
from website link: https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/shopping/catalog/sensors_-z-_encoders/photoelectric_sensors/diffuse/ltr-c23pa-pmk-101

I entered the part name as : "Contrinex photoelectric sensor, rectangular, diffuse, visible red, 5-1200mm sensing distance, complementary light-on/dark-on, NPN, potentiometer, 1.5 kHz switching frequency, ABS plastic housing, pigtail."
and the Variant to : "LTR-C23PA-PMK-101"

This name was WAY too long. I tried moving most of the description to the Notes but that didn't help the Table View. Moving most of the description to the Variant Name field worked better.

Either a truncated version of the Notes field (maybe with tooltip of the whole field) would be better. Or display the Variant Name field instead of the Notes field.
