Alex, That does work, my trouble was that I was overwriting the protected function onFocusOut to do other actions. I tried to set this.horizontalScrollPosition = 0 within the onFocusOut function, but it still would not fire from AS. I ended up having to rewrite the custom component to allow the focusOut to be part of the control as you suggested.
