<![CDATA[Aligning the text for a text label with the text in a QLineEdit]]>Hello all,

Title pretty much says it. I have a QLineEdit above a text label in a form layout. I am currently using a fixed pitch font and I would like the text in the text label to be aligned with the text in the QLineEdit.

I have been trying to do this for a few days now to no avail. Would anyone have any ideas on how I can accomplish this?

Thank you

Thank you for your advice. I ended up placing the label into a container and adjusting the left margin padding. Set the value to 4 and everything appears to be lining up nicely. Thank you all for everything
