How to align content of ComboBox by center?

See original GitHub issue

Unlike different controls ComboBox doesn’t have HorizontalContentAlignment property.

Is there is any replacement for this? If not can it be added then?

@FoggyFinder it seems like a problem with properties overriding - https://github.com/AvaloniaUI/Avalonia/issues/2098 HorizontalAlignment is defined in the template, so it can’t be overridden with style.

I will implement ComboBox.HorizontalContentAlignment to avoid that problem.

For now you can only replace whole ComboBox template with alignment-center.

@FoggyFinder You can set it with style

<Style Selector="ComboBox /template/ ContentControl">
   <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Right" />
</Style>
