Please don't use personal preferences in choosing offsets for dialog layout. The Gnome HIG goes into some detail on how windows should be laid out. http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/design-window.html http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/design-text-labels.html http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/windows-alert.html#alert-spacing If you can't find something listed there, then make dialogs consistent with the existing dialogs. If the existing dialogs are inconsistent, we should make them consistent. If we can't decide on that's the right answer for consistency, we should ask questions of the HIG developers.
