I'm converting some Flex1.5 code to flex 2.0.  One of the classes (a
commonly used custom component) uses the following to set the background
color to that of the parent container:

__labelCanvas.setStyle("backgroundColor")=_parent.getStyle("backgroundCo\
lor");

This doesn't work in Flex2.0, nor does
parent.getStyle("backgroundColor");

How can I get a style attribute of a parent container?

BTW, I can't just let it be transparent because I need to obscure some
drawn graphic elements of the parent, but I want __labelCanvas to have
the same background color as the parent.  Also, the parent might not
always be the same color, else I would set a CSS descriptor for it.

Thanks,
GT
