I have yet to find a good and simple tutorial regaurding the skinning of the scrollBar component so I am trying to fake it...
Simply put I have MC buttons underneath the scroll bar and the bar itself is invisible... I need to know what the name of the actual scrubber bar (the one you drag arround) is called so i can attach a movieClip to it and match it's width/height and X position
does anyone know it? --- or Can someone simply explain how i would go about actually skinning it? Everything i have seen says open haloTheme or sampleTheme and edit those but I just want to change it once (not perminantly).
I'm working on a Flash game and I'm using button components in the UI. I like that the key functionality is built into them and that they are fairly easy to skin. The problem is, I need to be able to skin them with a bitmap (specifically a PNG) using AS3. I've found a couple of Flex frameworks out there that might help but we're not using Flex in our development process.

View 1 RepliesWhy I have to press 2 times the arrow key down to get a navigation through the list items in a list component of Flash?

I'm building a top view 2D map, that it's objects are stored on the server.The kind of objects are 10 and might be a photo, label, button, lists, mix of them or labels with tooltips.The component must request the "areas" that are missing on screen.An area is 1000x1000 px and is cached in flex.To move in the map, will be like in google maps (drag-and-drop).I should be able to have another list and move objects from one to another using drag-an-drop on objects. Ex.: I grab an objects from a list and I move it on this map, I release the mouse button and the item is placed there.Now the problem is: I build a custom component for this trying to emulate the item renderer for performance and recyclage, implement drag-and-drop on objects and request the areas that are missing?
or
I extend the List component from spark and I add some features as multiple kind of itemrenderers and use recycle on them. Of course it must be able to request the missing areas on the screen and cache it's data.Maybe create a custom layout is needed too.What I need is something that must be really fluid, so the lighter this component is, the better.
UPDATE: *There will be not any object over another.
*I will not use hitTest on bitmaps because all bitmaps are wrapped in another component,as they,for now are itemrenderers.
Anyway I already begin to do this using a class that extends the SkinnableDataContainer and a custom layout. As the layout is not like a grid, is sparse, random items at diferent points(x, y).How to get the localX and localY, relative to item renderer and not to the Spark List, from a DragEvent in Flex 4?
I have two Lists (components) on stage. The first one (mainList populates from an XML called topics.xml
[Code]...
on event handler change, I want to load the second list on the other list component, called subList..It's not loading.. I believe it's because when it reads the data from my topics list, it reads topic1.xml instead of "topic1.xml" ( reads without the quotes). If I unquote line v.list.load("subtopic.xml"), it works, but I need it to be loaded from the XML..

I currently have a list that I'm using to hold text so when an item in the list is selected the text is displayed in a text box along side it. I want to have the first item in the list to be pre-selected so the text for that item is already in the textbox when it is loaded.
