    Unhappy edit controls offset in Qt 4.8.0 on Mac OS X

    I notice that the contents of QLineEdit and QSpinBox controls are not correctly left aligned in Qt 4.8.0 on Mac OS X. See the attached screenshots of the identical 'configdialog' example built with Qt 4.7.4 and Qt 4.8.0 (both standard binaries downloaded from Nokia).

    It looks wrong and it wastes screen real estate. Is anyone else seeing this? Any idea how to fix it?

    I see the same effect in that example and a bare QLineEdit/QSpinBox on Mac OS X Lion using Qt 4.8.0. Have not tried 4.8.1.
    I could not see a bug report or change that obviously relates to this issue but I only had a cursory scan.

    Thanks for replicating it. At least I know it isn't just me. Where is the best place to report a bug to the Qt development team now?

    I have added this bug as well:

    I'm not holding my breath for a response though.

    It appears to be fixed in Qt 4.8.1. Hoorah!
