I have a problem in applying the styles for scroll bar skins through actionscript.
In css we specify as thumbOverSkin: Embed(source="assets/thumb_over.png",scaleGridLeft="4",scaleGridTop="4", scaleGridRight="5", scaleGridBottom="5");
In actionscript we specify as setStyle("thumbOverSkin", someImageClass);
How can we specify scaleGrid properties in the above statement?
Thanks for the help in advance.
If you're using Flex 3, that
someImageClass
, if it's just an image, could just be assigned to a variable. Try this out, it shows two ways of setting simple skins on Flex 3 components:(the
up_button.png
was a simple red square shrunken to 40x40 for testing).If you're using Flex 4, the Group, which extends Skin, has full 9-slice scaling baked in and you can do a lot more with them.
Hope that helps, Lance
