Normal RadComboBox behaviour has the selected item aligned to the start of the word, clipping the end when it's too long for the ComboBox as I would expect.
When IsEditable is enabled once the user tabs out of the ComboBox the selected item is aligned to the end of the word, clipping the start. This occurs when an item is selected as well as when entered.
Is this the intended behaviour, I would expect that once I have completed selecting/entering an item it would show it from the start.

Hi Andrew,
This is the intended behavior - when you change the selection we select all of the text in the TextBox (the standard WPF combobox works in the same way). You can verride this behavior by setting the SelectAllTextEvent property to None.

Indeed, I've just stumbled across that myself and it *almost* does what is required.
We want all text to be selected on GotFocus to enable the user to type & overwrite the existing value after tabbing into the field. This works correctly for all modes (selection via typing, scrolling or clicking) however if the user tabs past the field without changing it, it selects all text, scrolls to the end of the selected item and causes the alignment issue again.
We effectively need a way to set the input text caret position to 0 on lost focus.
