Is this correct? In Staff properties, the "Hide when empty" wording seems to be too far from its accompanying drop-down list. And the "Style group" wording is some way away from its field (with the word "tablature" in it).

Looks correct to me. We may need some extra space before the right row of check boxes though
In this case, it looks as if the list-box is associated with the words "Do not hide if system is empty." Compare it to the layout in 2.0.3 where the check boxes are always next to the relevant heading.
This was my immediate impression and my guess is that other users might make the same assumption.
Hmm, looking at the dialog in Qt-Creator:
![editstaff.png]( "editstaff.png")
Looks pretty OK to me
There is a style guide for Microsoft applications which describes the margins, paddings and so on for all typical UI elements. But we cannot use it since we are cross-platform application.
Or rather we rely on Qt to do this for us
The appearance in 3.4.2 is good enough. No need to make the combo box "Expanding".
