Shrinking to children a TextBlock with a minimum size will make it centered, even with Align Left selected.

• I have a UIBlock with a AutoLayout, that shrink its size to its children.
• I have a TextBlock inside it.
• I want the TextBlock to have a Minimum size.
• I want the text inside my TextBlock to Align to left.
• I want my TextBlock to shrink to the size of the text.

Now is the problem. Shrinking to children the Text will make it centered. It takes correctly the minimum size, but will ignore the Text to be Align to the left.

Here is a image to better visual what I mean :

Any suggestions? Thank you!

It seems like you've found a bug! We're still investigating a proper fix, but in the meantime, you can work around this issue by adding a UIBlock as a parent of the TextBlock, set the UIBlock to shrink and set the MinSize on it (instead of the TextBlock).

If we misunderstood what you are trying to accomplish and this work around doesn't fix the issue for you, feel free to follow up!

This solution works and it's exactly what I wanted! Thanks.
