L/Rt Positive/Negative button layout.

This was requested in another thread, but I think it got buried in amongst other issues (I just spent 10 minutes looking for it, to no avail)

 

Commonly, UI layout for the action buttons at the bottom of a popup form are such that the Positive Action (Save, Include, Post) is on the Left side... Negative Actions (specifically Cancel) is usually on the Right Button.

Right now, we have "Post" on the right and "Cancel" on the left. While this seems like a trivial thing, I cannot describe how "wrong" it feels when it is <as it currently is> .

 

Could this be switched to the more standard method? Alternatively, could you point me to a UI standard, Human-Interface study, or scholarly article that says it is better the current way?

Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter,

Dr. Hugh **bleep**
