You can get the x and y positions of the date labels using the following trick: <?xml version="1.0"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"; xmlns="*"> <mx:DateChooser id="dateChooser" /> <mx:Button label="Click Me" click="buttonClicked()" /> <mx:TextArea id="textArea" width="100%" height="100%" /> <mx:Script> function buttonClicked():Void { for (var p:String in dateChooser.dateGrid) { if (p.slice(0, 8) == "dayBlock") { var label:TextField = TextField(dateChooser.dateGrid[p]); textArea.text += p + " is at " + label._x + "," + label._y + "\n"; } } } </mx:Script> </mx:Application> Next, you want to add your "red cross" symbols to the DateChooser and position them where you want.
