My first thought is there should be an explicit way to attach the skin such as a skin property or, more likely for FlexJS, a skin bead. I think what you (Om) were doing with core.graphics is a good step with the ability to place some of the constructs in MXML. Alex has done more work with events so perhaps what was tripping you up will have cleared itself up by now. In the meantime, I need to get re-aquainted with skinning in Flex so dive in, by all means. ‹peter > >Thanks, >Om > > >> Thanks, >> Peter Ent >> Adobe Systems >>
