Description
9.0.0-beta.2, Linux. In the Launcher, Memory Limit shows a number and its range (e.g. 5 [0..47]) but no unit. The value is in GB.
WxLauncher::refreshMemoryLimit() (src/apps/launcher/WxLauncher.C) converts the queue's MB values to GB and calls p_maxMemoryParamEdit->setUnitsLabel("GB"), so the label is set but not displayed: either the units label of that edit control is never shown or laid out, or the range label replaces it.
Expected: GB after the field, as everywhere else memory is entered (memory is entered and labelled in GB for every code). Check the other Launcher fields with units (wall time, scratch) at the same time.

Released in 9.0.0: the unit is shown on Linux (dba1deb) and the label is laid out with its width on Windows (2b4d526). Reopen if it is still missing on Windows.
