Books? I don't much care for books... they're
full of truths.
I went digging into the defaults.css and ripped out
what I saw in there for DateChooser. It's located here for
me:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2 Plug-in\Flex
SDK 2\frameworks
The reason I put it in the CSS is that you can use
multiple NextDateButtons, and they are only 1 line, not the 14 below.
However, if you are only using it once in your app, it's not worth extending
Button & putting it as a CSS selector like I did.
If you need more info and are brave, look at the
class here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2 Plug-in\Flex
SDK 2\frameworks\source\mx\controls
I'm sure it may reveal how it's handling some of
the skins.

holy kow batman! Thank you Jester! I'm now fully
lost, what book is this stuff you suggested in? have to read up!
I will add somehting i just found though....one word
Binding! ooops! The below is starting to work. Just have to
figure out the settings used in the DateChooser to get things to work exactly
the same. Maybe make a custom component of just the button to share later.
Thanks again d00d!
<mx:Button click="onPrev()"
upSkin="{mx.skins.halo.DateChooserMonthArrowSkin }"
downSkin="{mx.skins.halo.DateChooserMonthArrowSkin }"
overSkin="{mx.skins.halo.DateChooserMonthArrowSkin }"

no workie....hope jester's bag of tricks is deep!
I looked around the Flex SDK source and see no arrow pngs at all, many
other pngs though. My guess is the arrows are compiled in a swc
somewheres, which means they should be 'grabable' eh? Be nice to use any
graphics in the SDK in custom components to maintain the 'Flexiness', eh?
What I'm trying to do is create a next/previous month browser.
We have reports that users run on a month end basis, the datechoser is really
not the right tool for this. I'm just using mxml to do this
currently...suppose I will have to go off and lear the way of the force for
building components soon.

Hrm... try:

If that doesn't work, I have more
ideas.
The skin is already imported in the
defaults.css, so she IS in there.

Found these digging in DateChooser.as.
I'm assuming these skins are compiled into the base framework. Try
using like DateChooserMonthArrowSkin as one of your upSkins and see what
happens.

So, I'm creating a custom component with next/previous
functionality. I'd like to use the same arrows on say the
DateChooser control. Are these avaialbale to the developer
somehow?
