Hello!

I have several InfoCtrls put on a statusbar. Each of those InfoCtrls is preceeded by a label wrapped in FrameRight/FrameLeft template. (There is no simpler way to label InfoCtrl, is there?). Let me draw a simple diagram:

[label_1][infoCtrl_1][label_2][infoCtrl_2]


With the default placement, infoCtrl_1 and label_2 are too close to each other. I'd like to add some space in between to make things a bit prettier. I've been thinking on two possible solutions:

1. aligning label_2 to right hand side and making it a few pixels wider than what's is required to display whole text
2. adding some fake FrameRight< StaticRect > in between

Is there a better way to achieve what I want? Maybe it's possible to explicitly add some margin to a frame?
