Text boxes and field label LnF
- If a text is too long for a text box / label then the text continues and the user will be able to see this text by moving the cursor in the text box / label. It should never change size due to content.
 - Label must be on the right side of check box.
 - Any field that is just for display of info and cannot be edited should be shown in disabled mode (either gray background or gray font text).
 - Second letter should be small for labels and dialog headers for all English, Danish and Vietnamese text resources. E.g. it is called "User name" and not "User Name".
 - Field labels in other languages may be longer than the original meaning you should consider that the label will still look good if label is longer text string.
 - Make sure there is always space in between fields, boxes and window edges. Text that ends very close to where a another entry box starts also does not look good.
 - All fields must use general style-sheet that specifies width, color, etc.
