Comment (by humdinger):

 Just to add, I experience an anomaly with a BTextControl with no label
 that should be center aligned. The code is a simple:
 {{{
 fLimitControl = new BTextControl("limitfield", NULL, "", NULL);
 fLimitControl->SetAlignment(B_ALIGN_CENTER, B_ALIGN_CENTER);
 }}}

 and after that I do a bit of DisallowChar() to only allow numbers.

 In the attached clip (slow playback as every BeScreenCapture capture...) I
 press backspace to delete the text "100". Note the cursor already isn'
 really centered. I then enter characters, the control behaves as if it
 left aligned, but inset a few dozen pixels. I then delete all characters
 and re-type them. The cursor now is completely at the left side, no sign
 of center...

 This is a real-word example of Clipdinger's settings window, if anyone
 wants to reproduce.
