I figured out my problem. There was an accidental call to graphics.beginFill. The ALPHA was set to 0 (which meant I couldn't visually see anything).
I have now separated my focusSkin out from the regular skin, and have made sure that I'm only drawing a thin border since the FOCUS skin is overlayed on top of the component. I will say, the documentation on all this is pretty sparse. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "taude1" <tpreka...@...> wrote: > > Hi All, > I have a button with a custom skin and a custom focusSkin. when tabbing > into the button and the focus skin is showing, it doesn't raise click events. > I know that I'm supposed to have a "HOLE" in my focus skin.
