The line edit theming is broken. It's especially evident in the KDE4 Oxygen style. I hate the idea of having to adjust dimensions of line edits, but I don't see a way around it right now. The issue is that if Qt styles has large borders in the lineedit that go inside the content box we will squeeze the box and make it too small. I'd welcome any ideas on how to handle it. For now I'm going to attach a patch that as I mentioned I'm not a huge fan but which does seem to fix it. In it we adjust the size vertically and horizontally set padding on the element equal to the width of the style painted border.

Tor Arne, could you take a look at this one? Thanks :)
Comment on attachment 28147 [details] Patch which seems to fix the styling issues Looks good, we do the same trick for buttons (adjusting padding). One small nitpick: > + //this will need ot be regenerated when the style changes Also missing Changelog. No need to resubmit patch though, just fix and re=me. Tor Arne
