Hunting the elusive panellabelandmessage padding

I have a panelformlayout and with panellabelandmessages and various other stuff in it.

My alignment of fields is screwed because my plam items are left padded by 9px. Why I dont know.

So I decided to pad all the other items by 9px to keep it all looking good. (the plam items seem like they are hard codex to 9px or something).

So I add a style class to the other items called leftPad but the style doesnt work. So I added a background color to my style to check if I got my items correct and like magic the padding and the color work. So I just changed the background back to the original color and everything works - like magic.

Styled item
<af:inputtext columns="#{bindings.Attr1.hints.displayWidth}"
   id="it25" label="#{bindings.Attr1.hints.label}"
   maximumlength="#{bindings.Attr1.hints.precision}" required="true"
   shortdesc="#{bindings.Attr1.hints.tooltip}" styleclass="leftPad"
   value="#{bindings.Attr1.inputValue}">
  <f:validator binding="#{bindings.Attr1.validator}">
</f:validator></af:inputtext>

Style Sheet
.leftPad .AFPanelFormLayoutContentCell {
  padding-left: 9px;
  background-color: #F5F5F9;
}

ADF: LOV Description instead of code

I keep on forgetting how to do this so this is a note to self in terms I understand (ie pictures): Add the related entiy object to yours (in the example we are adding RegionEO(list of values) to CountryEO) Now add the RegionName field from the EO and a transient attribute (I named mine RegionNameLOV) Make the transient attribute updateable and base it on the expression RegionName (the description you wish to display) Add a list of values to RegionNameLOV and map BOTH key to parent fk (region id here) AND RegionName to your transient coulmn (RegionNameLOV).  Map the transient as an Input text with List of Values. Then just drag the lov item onto the page (RegionNameLOV)
