The %name:15% specifier:
- Restricts the name field to 15 characters and right-justifies the string in the field.
- Has the same field width, but strings are left-justified in the field. Values longer than 15 characters are not truncated, but do skew the alignment on the line. The maximum field width is 255 characters.
Next is an example of a command and the report it generates. The report shows that values longer than the specified width are not truncated, but the alignment is skewed.
