https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99104 --- Comment #3 from Yousuf (Jay) Philips <philipz85@hotmail.com> --- Created attachment 124196 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=124196&action=edit label alignment with headings and checkboxes (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #1)
The decision is based on a survey (http://user-prompt.com/kde-hig-survey-about-how-to-align-controls-over- multiple-groups/) where 2/3 voted for this type of alignment.
@Heiko: I didnt see in any of the 4 options what we are currently following, so not sure how this is a relevant decision for us to follow based on the votes. (In reply to Adolfo Jayme from comment #2)
I am going with the new alignment because it brings controls and labels closer. Awkward gaps have been the norm in the .src-based dialogs. This change is coherent with the recommendations of the following HIGs: https://developer.gnome.org/hig/stable/visual-layout.html.en https://elementary.io/en/docs/human-interface-guidelines#spacing
@Adolfo: As we are current building our own HIG, we should discuss changes like this, as we are not current following those HIGs for other aspects of the UI. I see these right aligned labels cause problems with the alignment of bold heading labels as well as checkboxes, as can be seen in the screenshot. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
