I'm working on a Flex 4 application and I started customizing the interface with skins to give a whole new look.So, I've created two scrollbar skins in Flash Catalyst (one horizontal, one vertical).Its working great when I test the application through Catalyst so I took it and imported it on Flash Builder, copied the components and defined the new skins in my css file for the HScrollbar and VScrollbar.The skin is working, all the buttons are ok. But, the scrollbar isnt resizing for some reason. It remains in the same height I've designed it to be regardless of the content it is bound to.
It scrolls the content in all the ways it should be but it doesnt resize and the thumb isnt getting all the way down.Also I've noticed the following.I have a custom component acting as a list. It extends Group and contains a Scroller. So at one place of the application the Scrollthumb is getting lower than on another place where the same custom list is used.I also have to mention that this scroller works perfectly without a custom skin.
I have a custom skin class that I want to apply to all scrollbars. Is there a way to set this globally in a Flex Spark application?

View 1 RepliesI have built a basic theme for my Flex app. I would like to add support for additional predefined themes. By default, app has a theme and I would like it to change when user selects a theme from dropdown list. This can be done by loading a swf file using styleManager. However, all the skins have colors hard-coded in them. So, in order to achieve this I would have to duplicate skins and change value of the colors.
Is there a better way of doing this? Can I just have a skin that will change color values dynamically based on user selection?

I have a supplied video.flv that I have in Flash with a skin control and exported as video.swf and inserted into a GoLive site, all is well apart from the excessive sound. The volume controller is defaulted to max and I would like to reduce the default volume by about 50%. Is this possible to do in Flash before exporting the video.swf.

<s:Group id="contentGroup" top="20" left="10" right="10" bottom="10">
<s:layout>
<s:VerticalLayout/>
</s:layout>

View 1 RepliesSkinParts are a great way to add event handlers and logic to an object that is instantiated in the skin, away from any business code. Often, though, I find myself wanting to do the opposite, and define parts that will be used in reusable, skinnable containers in the parent mxml files which will be inserted into the skinned containers.
What's the best practice for when you want to be able to define a control and a skin which can be reused with different controls inserted from outside the skin? Edit: A better way to put this might be that I want to use something that works a little bit like a SkinnableContainer, but that isn't limited to one area where content can be placed.
I'm using the default CS4 FLVPlayback skin, mainly the SkinOverPlayMute.swf. I know there's a skinAutoHide option, but because I don't want it to auto play, I want people to see a play button when they first encounter the video (so they don't think it's just an image). But the skin needs to hide when the video is actually playing (so the video doesn't get blocked by the controls).
In other works - when video isn't playing: skin showing; when video is playing: skin hide.

View 1 RepliesI worked through Kirupa's "Simple Custom Scrollbar" tutorial and successfully adjusted it to fit some of my content. Then I put it in a movieclip. I was hoping I could just go into each new instance of that movie clip, put in new content and be good to go. Unfortunately, when I edit the content inside my movie clip it edits the content of all the scrollbars in my timeline.
I tried renaming the instance "contentMain" to "contentMain2" in a second movie clip, that I also gave a unique instance name to, and adjusting the actions to match, but that still ended up renaming it in the other the scrollbars in my timeline as well as adjusting it in the actions of all the scrollbars.
