How can I attach the right border of a TDirectoryEdit/TFileNameEdit element to the right of the form I put it on?
It seems that the right border of this elements end at the right border of the input line so that the icon for mouse selection is on the right of the right border.
I would expect the right border of the icon to be the right border of the whole element.
If I attach the right border of TDirectoryEdit/TFileNameEdit elements to the right of the whole window the icon is no longer visible. And if I add a right margin it is put *between* the input line and the icon so that the icon is no longer directly attached to the input line. Is that as designed?
I don't see any logic in this?

As I now found there is already a bug report that dates back 3 years:

It seems, nobody can fix it.
