struct2table display 1 x l arrays compactly

I have a struct with fields containing all kinds of classes (strings, structs, doubles). I want to convert it to a table using struct2table however the fields that contain 1x100 doubles now show as 100 subcells instead of one compact cell.
what I got:
what i want (but as a table rather than struct)
I know this is pretty much only visual but its still annoying. Is there a way to change the display of these fields?

Is there something you do differently ?
S.a = rand(1,100);
B = struct2table(S)
B = table
a ____________ 1×100 double
B{1,:}
ans = 1×100
0.0035 0.7209 0.3477 0.1833 0.0275 0.7440 0.4212 0.7092 0.0500 0.0125 0.2705 0.1719 0.9740 0.9355 0.5429 0.2230 0.0396 0.6804 0.6219 0.9251 0.3874 0.0538 0.5973 0.0496 0.1262 0.6682 0.0194 0.8474 0.4422 0.3196

It apparently exists in your structure as a row vector. You will need to convert it to a column vector by transposing it, first.
Try something like this --
S.power_mech = rand(1,10)
S = struct with fields:
power_mech: [0.3775 0.7335 0.3994 0.9418 0.8657 0.5449 0.8141 0.6161 0.4464 0.7983]
T1 = struct2table(S)
T1 = table
power_mech __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 0.37749 0.73353 0.39942 0.94178 0.86565 0.5449 0.81407 0.61608 0.44635 0.79826
S.power_mech = S.power_mech(:) % Transpose (Simple Transpose)
S = struct with fields:
power_mech: [10×1 double]
T2 = struct2table(S)
T2 = 10×1 table
power_mech __________ 0.37749 0.73353 0.39942 0.94178 0.86565 0.5449 0.81407 0.61608 0.44635 0.79826

Format tweak.
