With the newer version of OPIM, 08.11.11.224 the BOM format changed from a single mtext/textnode to individual pieces of text.
While this is good to control where the text is placed, it is hard to upgrade and then spend hours adjusting the report.def file to the new format.
What other options are there with the newer version to keep either single lines of text for each item or mtext/textnodes for the whole MTO?
Also I've found with the new BOM, the NODE in the drawing is not lining up with the exact location of the text, see the snapshot below, not sure what is happening here.

On new BOM feature, mono text format is implemented, thus allow user to get more flexibility. It requires adjusting the width of each column by dimensioning it using Microstation command. Old custom report def file may require little customization by adjusting its width to get proper output. See below wiki for your help.
