I guess the texts should align. But until this is fixed your only chance is to 
do the alignment manually (by adding or subtracting a few pixels on the x 
coordinate in Gorm's size inspector).

Why do you use a table and not a NSTextField? But anyway, setEnabled should 
work for a NSTextFieldCell inside a table as well.
