Grouped by filament, a row had nothing of its own to put in the bold title slot -- #id, fill, weight and location all have columns -- so it borrowed the comment when one was set, and dropped the usage status to a quiet second line behind it. That assumed comments are short labels. The field is a free-form textarea: people keep order URLs, multi-line notes and pasted receipts there. Whatever is in it got the widest, loudest slot in the row, pushed out "used N ago" -- the one thing every row can say -- and, since .name is nowrap, ran any newlines together into one line before ellipsing mid-word. Rows now always show the usage status. The comment is unabridged in the inspector, which is the only place it was ever readable in full. The screenshot is regenerated against the new behaviour, and demo_seed's comments go back to natural length -- they were written short only to survive the row.
Keep track of your inventory of 3D-printer filament spools.
Spoolman is a self-hosted web service designed to help you efficiently manage your 3D printer filament spools and monitor their usage. It acts as a centralized database that seamlessly integrates with popular 3D printing software like OctoPrint and Klipper/Moonraker. When connected, it automatically updates spool weights as printing progresses, giving you real-time insights into filament usage.

Installation
Please see the Installation page on the Wiki for details how to install Spoolman.
If the new client misbehaves on your setup, set SPOOLMAN_LEGACY_CLIENT=TRUE to go back to
the previous one. Both ship in every release and talk to the same API, so your data is
untouched either way — but please report the problem
so it can be fixed.
