In 9.80 is there a way to set a padding to the left of text within a column?

We couldn't do that since we use the exact string out of it (couldn't use a trim to remove the spaces), so overriding the draw functions is what we're doing. We'll allow everything to paint (background, etc), then adjust the left edge of the text area before it gets painted.

Sounds right. So, it there any problem with this solution?

No problem with doing it, but for others, it might be nice to be able to set a pixel offset like there appears to be for headers.
