Description of the need
There are a lot of places in core (and I need this for contrib) where a module is forced to add its own style sheet in order to make two form elements appear on the same line.
It would be nice if there was a class provided by core that all the modules could use, so the same display: inline-block; CSS code doesn't need to be individually defined, and repeated.
Examples of places in core that could benefit from this: * Link fields (title and URL fields) * Date fields (date and time fields) * Image styles (image dimensions) * more!
Proposed solution
Add the following to system.css:
.form-item-inline {
display: inline-block;
}
This would enable the following in any instance where two or more fields should appear on the same line:
$form['resolution']['x'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#default_value' => $resolution[0],
'#size' => 5,
'#maxlength' => 5,
'#field_suffix' => ' x ',
'#wrapper_attributes' => array('class' => array('form-item-inline')),
);
$form['resolution']['y'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#default_value' => $resolution[1],
'#size' => 5,
'#maxlength' => 5,
'#field_suffix' => ' ' . t('pixels'),
'#wrapper_attributes' => array('class' => array('form-item-inline')),
);
Alternatives that have been considered
I think we can do something similar with the existing container-inline class, but I haven't been able to figure that out. I'll look at some more examples.

Draft of feature description for Press Release (1 paragraph at most)
Backdrop now includes a utility class that contrib modules can use to display multiple input fields on the same line.

Thanks for responding. I was expecting that it be relatively easy to manage overlay layers (not the base layers that are indeed controlled form the Leaflet More Maps module's settings page)....

Hi jcesar, it may depend on what kind overlay you need. Overlays are supported in the Leaflet module. The submodule leaflet_more_maps ships with a lot of additional map types. And...
