The best way to fix these problems is to change the original medm file such that the automated conversion to BOY files is better.  Usually the problem is that the medm field width is not sized to the actual text size, etc.  This way when the medm file is updated in the future with new widgets, etc. the automatic conversion can produce new usable OPI files.  I see too many cases where people are using BOY or EDM files that don't expose more recent areaDetector features because they did a manual edit of an older version.

Hi,

The areaDetector-supplied opi files NDStdArrays and NDPluginBase don't make a good job of formatting these values:

I expect that they were translated from the original .adl files using an automated tool.  What formatting etc. settings would be suitable for these values?

Regards
