When Adding a Label in a GridLayout
var element = new RadLabelElement()
element.SetValue(GridLayout.ColSpanProperty, colspan);
element.SetValue(GridLayout.RowIndexProperty, row);
element.SetValue(GridLayout.ColumnIndexProperty, column);
(If I could get the label to fill the entire cell, I could use the TextAlignment proproperty, but with Autosize enabled, it will never fill the entire cell.)

Hello Holger,
Thank you for your interest in our GridLayout panel.
I have tested your scenario but it seems that I was able to move the label element to the right side by setting the TextAlignment property. You can find the sample project which I used to test your case. When you run the project you can observe how the label is placed on the bottom right side. May I ask you to take a look at the project and let me know what I am missing from your setup?

Thanks for the support.
Actually it's the default setting of StretchVertically=true and StretchHorizontally=true in the Element, what completly 'disables' the AutoSize, and if the Label ist filling the cell completly, of course the TextAlignment does work.
For myself, I found a more general solution, not just for Labels.
Any RadElement has an Alignment property for positioning inside the Parent Element, this also works for GridLayout-Cells.
So for unstretched elements it's just:
element.StretchVertically = false;
element.StretchHorizontally = false;
element.Alignment = ContentAlignment.BottomRight;
It's just my inexperience, not to know this in advance, but you inspired my research. Thanks.
