Actually, the HIG specifies 12 pixels between the longest label its corresponding option widget, at least in figure 8-4 on the page Matthew linked to.
Nevertheless, neither the existing gnome capplets nor the spec on google docs is very consistent. I see three different ways in which option label widgets are presented: (1) left-aligned label (2) right-aligned label (3) bold left-aligned label with optional detail text and the option widget to the far right The HIG recommends (1), and that is what's used in the capplets that Seb mentioned. The spec on google docs uses all three (!) in different applets. The implementation uses all three and adds a fourth, right- aligned label without colon (for example in Network and Online Accounts). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/928762 Title: "Theme" and "Launcher" labels are hundreds of pixels away from their controls To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/928762/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
