Aligning input text inside <Editbox>

[Letho]

Hey, does anybody know how to align text inside an edit control? The shared verticalAlignment attribute does not work, editbox:SetVerticalAlignment doesn't work either (although it does not throw an error!). This really drives me crazy, there must be an elegant way without using dimension constraints for the editbox itself.
As always: I don't want to inherit from an original zenimax editbox because I want a custom style.

Cheers
