Freeform Report - Column Alignment

I'm trying to create my first Freeform Report and I have a simple question, I hope.

I've got 10 elements that I'm trying to set into two columns.  I've got the info in the correct location except the static text elements do not line up.

For example, I want this:

Element 1: XXXXX      Element 6: yyy
Element 2: xxx           Element 7: xkxkxx
Etc.

and I get this:

Element 1: XXXXX      Element 6: yyy
Element 2: xxx     Element 7: xkxkxx
Etc.

Is there a way to force the first letter in the static text to align on the report?

Hey Paul,

You can force alignment in the example you gave by setting the same width to all your value boxes and the same width to your static text boxes(or the same combined width so the width of the label for Element 1 and the width of the value box for Element 1 add up to the combined width of the label and value box for Element 2)
