Dear community,
who can solve this problem of displaying the names of the printing plates and the printing times?
It occurs in different language versions of the software and it has already been reported that the problem has been solved in the latest version (1.10.1.50), which is obviously still not the case.
The problem is the length and position of the output fields for the plate names and the printing times.
Thank you for your attention.

I’m afraid you’ll not find much love among developers to solve such an issue. That’s because it falls into the annoyance category as opposed to functional disruption.
This is an example of sloppy coding that should have been caught in testing. This is something that would cost a Comp-Sci student at least one letter grade if they handed in such a program. They failed to take into account the dynamic field lengths. Annoying? Absolutely!!! Show-stopping? No.
I normally would suggest that one might have more luck posting this in the Orca Slicer Github suggestion box but this would fall into core-code bug not a feature enhancement. That would therefore leave it up to Bambu and as they have shown without wavering, this is Bambu is more concerned self-promotion of Makerworld and getting you to buy more filament. If you could somehow tie this request into a way of selling more filament… you might get their attention. Until then, this follows Bambu’s philosophy of chà bù duō.
BTW: This philosophy is so 180 degrees opposite of European quality expectations so it can be a serious point of frustration. In the US, you frequently hear the term “German Engineering” used in marketing when one wants to equate their product with quality. You never do hear the term “Chinese Engineering” and quality in the same sentenced do you? There’s a reason. 
It’s a pity because at launch point, I sincerely thought Bambu was going to be different than other Chinese companies. They started out engineering a better product but over time as we see in these forums, they have allowed other priorities to take over their manufacturing and customer service.
Thank you for your feed back. I agree with you 100% on everything.
By the way:
Unfortunately, things are slowly going downhill here in Germany too. Everyone here swears “Made in Germany” but does too little. A lot of things are no longer made in Germany but are imported from China.

The developers, who you can contact at Github. Include all the necessary details about the bug that they request. I’ve had good responses to several reported problems.
This forum is provided by Bambu for the users, but bug reports here seldom get any action. The few support employees that monitor the forum are not the programmers and the actual developers do not monitor the forum.

Thanks for the feed back.
I have already informed the developers about the problem via Github.
I have already been informed by email that the problem has been solved with the new version (version 1.10.1.50). That was probably classic fake news, right? But I’m not giving up.
