Fyi. It looks like the field by default uses USE_ALL_WIDTH.   Overriding layout and passing getPreferredWidth() instead of actual width, will only give it as much room as it needs thus fixing this issue.

Using this fix I can't tell the difference between 6.0 render and 5.0.

I can confirm that this fix works - very nice and simple... thank you so much!

Works for me too... here's some sample code:

CheckboxField myBox = new CheckboxField("My Box", false, CheckboxField.FIELD_LEFT){
protected void layout(int width, int height) {
	super.layout(this.getPreferredWidth(), height);
}
 };
