I have two questions. BACKGROUND: I pulled the start of the subject line on this thread from the following link on the Flex JIRA: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-11342
I am using Flex 3.2 and I am experiencing exactly the same problem detailed in that JIRA bug (bug opened in June 2007). To duplicate the bug in your environment, copy the few lines of code from the following example at Pete deHaan's blog.flexexamples.com: http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/09/01/customizing-a-flex-tooltip-instances-appearance-using-styles/ Then, just add the following inside the <mx:Style> block for ToolTip {...}: borderStyle: inset; (In this case, the entire ToolTip gets wiped out. ARGHHH!) My questions are (and I am hoping that I am just missing something ;-): 1) Does anyone know a solution? Basically I just want to set my ToolTip borderStyle to a value other than the default (inset). Plus, per the docs several other ToolTip styles are only applied with borderStyle: solid; (in theory only, since this bug results when ANY value is set on borderStyle for ToolTip). 2) Can anyone explain to me the Flex JIRA system? The bug above is marked as closed in the JIRA (as is an indicated duplicate SDK-16619<http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-16619>). But I still have the bug w/ v3.2. Closed?!!! And I see no note of this bug being moved to a still open JIRA entry. Does the JIRA have a mechanism for reopening still outstanding bugs (that mysteriously are marked as closed)? It seems the longer that JIRA is around the more cruft is building up in it. For instance, not cross referenced in either of above is yet another "closed" JIRA entry for the exact same problem ... from 2006!!! http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-1081 Any (and all) assistance is, as always, appreciated :-) Thanks, g
