    Description

      Starting from some Jenkins release in this year (cannot remember exactly, but seems that it first occured in winter/spring 2019), boolean parameters title started to display not left-hand side (as it was before), but right to boolean check mark. It looks not quite logical, so i doubt it's feature and not a bug. It affects both Freestyle and Pipeline projects.

            It's by design. It will look better when we switch away from the table layout.

            What is the plan to switch this layout ? And how is it supposed to look by then ?
            Currently the change looks very confusing in a list of different parameter types for a job.
            (Need to mentally jump between the different alignment for the parameters)

            There's an open PR that handles this: https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/pull/3895.

            For context, labels above input elements and to the right of boolean elements is pretty standard. Bootstrap, which follows rather standards UI patterns, implements them like this: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.4/components/forms/#overview

            tmeltser and others interested in a fix for this issue are encouraged to learn more about the transition from table formatting to div formatting in the Jenkins user interface. Please view the May 2020 Hackfest video for an overview of the types of improvements the conversion will provide. Please read the table to div migration page on jenkins.io. The Jenkins UX SIG would love to have additional help testing , adapting, and refining the transition.

            The question, "When will it be in a Jenkins release?" depends on help from Jenkins developers and Jenkins users.
