            Bug ID: 428318
           Summary: ksysguard text alignment in the labels and content of
                    the columns are not uniform.
           Product: ksysguard
           Version: 5.20.1
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: ksysguard-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: hsanta...@gmail.com
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---
             Flags: Usability+

SUMMARY

The text alignment in the labels of the columns, in the tab Processes Table,
are not uniform.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open ksysguard
2. Observe the text alignment from labels of the columns and text alignment
inside columns.


OBSERVED RESULT

some labels have left-aligned text:
    - Name
    - Window title
    - Download *
    - Upload *
    - GPU usage
    - GPU memory

a label is centered:
    - User
    - CPU %

other labels have right-aligned text:
    - Priority
    - Total Memory
    - Shared memory

* The visual effect of this is even worse in the cases of Download and Upload
columns because, although the labels of these columns are aligned to the left,
the content of these columns is numeric and is aligned to the right. Therefore,
the labels for the Download and Upload columns are out of alignment with their
respective contents.

This creates an unpleasant feeling when we focus on the values displayed in
these columns. It happens that, if the Download and Upload columns are arranged
in this sequence, the value within the Download column is closer to the
alignment of the label of the next column, Upload, than the label of its own
column, Download. The same can be said about the value inside the Upload column
in relation to the label of the next column, if the label of the next column is
also aligned to the left (in my case it is, (GPU usage)).


EXPECTED RESULT

A uniform pattern of text alignment for column labels and their contents.

I would suggest the following pattern:

    - Texts: left aligned
    - % rates: centralized
    - numbers: right aligned

But I'm not sure about what is the correct solution to this. Maybe UI people
can say something about this.
