[FIXED] How to set Justify-Alignment for check boxes?

Issue

I have placed some QCheckBox in horizontal layout (or in grid layout).

The desired output is something like below (to get this output I have added some layout spacing, but it's not very precision):

I have also tried using setAlignment(Qt.AlignCenter) or setAlignment(Qt.AlignJustify), neither is working rightly

Solution

A possible solution is to set the horizontal policy to QSizePolicy::Maximum in the QCheckboxes, and place spacers between them:
