Text boxes and field label LnF

  1. 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.
  2. Label must be on the right side of check box.
  3. 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).
  4. 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".
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. All fields must use general style-sheet that specifies width, color, etc.
