Floating hint textblock cut off for right-aligned fields #3055
Description
Bug explanation
Bug possibly introduced with #3041
When setting a HorizontalContentAlignment to right, the hint is cut off as it matches the width of the entered text.
When entering longer text, the hint expands to show the full text but given the width of the Textbox it should always be visible.

@yosefmah You are absolutely correct that #3041 has introduced a regression. This is how it was before (which IMO is actually also misaligned, but that is a different issue):
And this it how it works after:
I'll look into fixing it.

Thanks for looking into this @nicolaihenriksen
I actually think the problem is broader than I originally stated - it seems to impact
HorizontalContentAlignment="Left"andHorizontalContentAlignment="Center"as well. OnlyHorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch"seems to not be affected.nicolaihenriksen commentedon Jan 23, 2023
I agree. And as you can see in the linked draft PR, I actually think we should revert the changes until we have a proper fix. I still believe the old implementation has issues, but not "as severe" as the new implementation. I'm currently waiting for some feedback from @Keboo about what to do about this (in the linked PR). Maybe he has a trick up his sleeve to solve it...
