Form view using text and dropdown fieldsets in the same view: how to manage (if possible) appearance

Good Morning all.

I'm experiencing a strange behavior trying to build a form view using simple xml. That view has some fieldsets working togheter: 2 text, 2 dropdown and a "time" imput type.

I'm wondering if there is a way, by simple xml, to drive how Splunk arranges texy boxes or dropdown into the final view. Actually it seems unmanageable. Isn't it?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'd suggest adding some css to the application.css file for your app, to change your layout.

Perhaps you could suggest a particular section to investigate starting in? I've seen another question regarding trying to align the input fields vertically to the left-hand margin of the form. Neither the documentation nor any answers I've seen have been particularly clear on this point.
