Some anatomy names are too large for the trade movement screen to show the quantities.
Can we change Giant to G. or even Gt?
It's a one row one table data change no brainer.

Except your suggestion doesn't fix the problem.  Not all the names in question have "giant" in them.  Poisonous Crawler Exoskelton is the worst one as none of the numbers comprising the quantity show up.  At least those with giant have most of numbers show.  There are up and down arrows so you can view everything in the list.  Maybe add one at the bottom of the window to move side to side to see everything currently being cut off.

Just take a look at all anatomy names and adjust the ones are to large.  Crawler Exoskeleton would work just as well.

what I do is select the text of the animal part and then right click the selected text. then somewhere in the list it says "search google for posonous crawler exoskeleton (2172)" and I know how many I got in inventory. Agreed, not the way it should be, but it works for me.

In the case of the crawler exoskeleton you actually need to select a part of the text under it, otherwise no number will show.

giant gt. 
exoskeleton exoskel.
poisonous pois.

trade orders and hub orders screens

the above would cure most of the issue.

Stop-gap solution while we wait for the devs to decide if this should be done:

 https://illystuff.uk/gm/ans.user.js

If you come up with any other anatomy names that you think should be shortened or think the abbreviations I've used are wrong just let me know. To try and show where I've abbreviated something I've used all uppercase.

This is completely separate to DurcTools and you don't need that installed to use it but you will still need either Greasemonkey or Tampermonkey installed.
