Maurice Amsellem commented on FLEX-24257:
-----------------------------------------
After investigating further, I think I understand where the cause of the issue.
Actually, when TextInput or DateField gets the focus, it will select the text
that is displayed (textField.setSelection(0, textField.length))
When the text is too "tight fitted" in the Input Field, FlashPlayer will scroll
it 20 pixels to the right.
In the example above, the default measured width for the textInput will be 70
pixels.
If you force the width to 71 pixels, scrolling does not happen any more.
Easy workaround that worked for me is just to set paddingRight="1".
So maybe the fix would be to increase the default width for the inner text
field by 1 pixel in the measure() function.
Hope this helps
