Re: PSPPire UI mockup

A summary of the proposal:
→ when activated "value labels" custom values ​​column alignment are ignored
→ The alignment columns are transformed into the following:
    * String: Left-aligned (blue color as Stata)
    * Label: Left-aligned (red color  as Stata) → Facilitates the reading of big words if you read the beginning of the sentence, as opposed to reading the middle or end
    * Number right-aligned (automatic color as Stata) → Facilitates the reading of numerical quantities

About the colors, I do not know if it can be used in psppire. In practice facilitates differentiate string values ​​(attribute variable-not useful for numerical analysis) and labeled values ​​(attribute that represents a numeric value that can be analyzed). Moreover, the string and labels values should be added a column width default minimum (suggested), for readability.

I think that you are saying that, when value labels are shown, the
alignment for columns that have value labels should be ignored.  Is that
correct?  So, in a column with value labels, you suggest that both
labels and numbers should be shown left-aligned?
