Hi Schmidty,
Thank you for writing us.
I have tested your scenario, but unfortunately I have not been able to reproduce the erroneous behavior. However, I have prepared for you a sample code snippet which will show you how to manually change the text alignment of the RadPanelBar's caption.
This sample code snippet creates a new RadPanelBar instance in outlook style. Then I add three group elements and select the first one. Finally, I change the text alignment of RadPanelBar's caption.
Please let me know if you need more assistance.
I hope this helps.
All the best,
