Nice work, but if wewant to make a skin in flash through flex extension, hot it is applied in the application.

Thanks

Veena Pandit,

Are you using the Flex 3 SDK or the beta Flex 4 SDK?
If you’re using the Flex 4 SDK, it will use a slightly different theme and many of these posts may not look the same (or work at all).

My horizontal scroll bar is kind of wierd. It doesn’t look like the scroll bar in this picture. Maybe it is inheriting from a global css style sheet in the application somewhere. How do I override that behaviour in the horizontalList?

Peter,

Is it possible to switch off the Scroll bar(s) and implement the scrolling in two buttons outside the container?

Regards,
Chandra Kumar

Hey Peterd. Never mind, I was able to figure it out by myself.

Nice code Peterd. I just have a question for you. Is there a way to edit the width of the scrollbar?

Eric, Good question! Instead of using Embed() to embed an image try using ClassReference(null):


    Box {
        verticalScrollBarStyleName: myVScrollBarStyleName;
        horizontalScrollBarStyleName: myHScrollBarStyleName;
    }

    .myVScrollBarStyleName {
        downArrowSkin: ClassReference(null);
        upArrowSkin: ClassReference(null);
    }

    .myHScrollBarStyleName {
        downArrowSkin: ClassReference(null);
        upArrowSkin: ClassReference(null);
    }

If I get time later today I'll try and turn that into a new entry. Thanks, Peter
