One label was added: org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label
When plan to do alignment for the text on the label to right,or , center, top, bottom, I am unable to do it. Any idea about it. Or if I can do add some left padding (space), top padding, ...

My code:
public void createPartControl(Composite arg0) {
Label lblNewLabel = new Label(arg0, SWT.NONE);
lblNewLabel.setBounds(25, 99, 400, 26);
lblNewLabel.setText("this is test");
lblNewLabel.setBackground(org.eclipse.wb.swt.SWTResourceManager.getColor(SWT.COLOR_DARK_GRAY));
lblNewLabel.setFont(org.eclipse.wb.swt.SWTResourceManager.getFont("Tahoma", 6, SWT.TOP));
....
)

How to alignment label text "this is test" to the Right ? In default, it is in left and top alignment when I had big bounds.
Thanks

Appreciate it.Gary
