I'm trying to change the background color on a textinput component in flex 4. I've been able to change some of the appearance by messing with the canned code flash builder generates for the sparkskin but for some reason, background does nothing.I'm just trying to make the background black.

View 1 RepliesI'm having issues changing a TextInput background color after the initial onLoad using AS2. On load, I have no issues setting the background color with this code:
Code:onClipEvent (load) { this.background = true; this.backgroundColor = 0x1E1C1C;}
However, I have a form validator run when focus is lost but yet I cannot set the background color at that point. For example, I'm trying to set the background color to orange and text to white if the field's contents are invalid. Even something simple like this doesn't affect the colors.

View 1 RepliesI use a flex mx:datagrid. I can set the headerBackgroundSkin to specify a skin or a picture to be displayed in all datagrid column's headers and it works just fine !
The problem is I can't find any way to specify a custom skin for the currently sorted column (doesn't matter if the sort is asc or desc, this is just to show the user which column is currently sorted).
I also tried to create a custom headerRenderer for each column but it is quite complicated and doesn't work very well.
I have been looking for the solution for a while but I can't find a good approach to do it. It sounds like a very basic need for me...incredible it is so complicated to achieve with Flex !!
I noticed someone was looking for the same thing few years ago but without success... [URL]

I have a custom preloader that I designed in flash. When I load it in flex, it loads with a white background. When I try to change the background to black in my flash file & load it in Flex, the background color remains white. I've also tried to update the compiler settings in Flex, adding "-default-background-color #000000" but I still get a white preloader background. I am using Flex 4. Here is my Pre.as file:
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to change the background color and or text color of a BorderContainer in flex 4 using Action Script, but have not idea how to. The Border Container component doesn't seem to have any properties like:

I have a Spark TextArea with a SpanElement inside. This element has the backgroundColor property set, but I would like to have the background a bit taller because it looks a bit weird at the top like this.[URL]..

Using CSS, how do I set the background color of a Flex MX Button? My button is declared as:
<mx:Button label="My Button"/>
And the CSS is:
@namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx";
mx|Button {
color: #66ffff;
backgroundColor: #333333;
}
backgroundColor doesn't seem to be the correct CSS property for MX Button's background color. Looking at the Flex API docs, I tried fillColors but that didn't do anything.
Is it possible to change mx.controls.Button's background color using CSS?
Is there a way using CSS, to set a mx.controls.ComboBox's background color. This would be the background color of each row when the ComboBox is clicked (expanded). I've tried backgroundColor, fillColors and backgroundGradientColors without success.
My ComboBox is contained within a FormItem. I've also tried setting FormItem's backgroundColor, fillColors and backgroundGradientColors. It's not clear to me where ComboBox obtains or inherits its list cell background color from.
How do I change the background color of the item I'm currently hovering over in a list? The default is that light blue, but I would like to be able to change it to whatever I want. I've gone through the list of available options, but I didn't see anything that stuck out at me.
I'm sure this is ridiculously simple, I just can't seem to figure it out.
I am trying to set the row background color for the advanced data grid control in Flex 3. Does anyone know if this is possible using a style function. Currently my style function looks like:
public function myStyleFunc(data:Object, col:AdvancedDataGridColumn):Object
{
if (data["status"] == "PRICING")
return {color:0xFF0000 , fontWeight:"bold" , backgroundColor:0xFF0000};
[Code].....
However the background color does not change.
I have heard on the grape vine that I may need to override some methods to enable the background color property.
I was able to set the text color of a selected LinkBar button by "disabledColor" style of LinkBar.Accordingly, I expect to set the background color of the selected button by "backgroundDisabledColor" style, however, it didn't work; and except "backgroundDisabledColor", I didn't see any other style that could possibly achieve this.

SkinParts 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.
