I don't know if there is a direct way to do that, somebody would confirm it.
But I can think of another way, which is not a good if you have lots of tabs...However, it might give you some idea. I am using TabBar with ViewStack, instead of TabNavigator. That ways I can get the reference of individual tabs. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"> <mx:Style> .tab1 { fill-colors: #99cc00, #ccff66; selected-fill-colors: #00cc00, #66ff66; } .tab2 { fill-colors: #FFF04B, #FFFFCC; selected-fill-colors: #E9C414, #FFFFCC; } .tab3 { fill-colors: #8AC7D2, #CBEEF1; selected-fill-colors: #00A3B2, #CBEEF1; } </mx:Style> <mx:Script> function setTabStyles() { //this can be inside a loop to avoid hardcoing of indices. tb.getChildAt(0).styleName = "tab1"; tb.getChildAt(1).styleName = "tab2"; tb.getChildAt(2).styleName = "tab3"; } </mx:Script> <mx:TabBar id="tb" dataProvider="vs" creationComplete="setTabStyles()"> </mx:TabBar> <mx:ViewStack id="vs"> <mx:Canvas label="Tab 1"/> <mx:Canvas label="Tab 2" /> <mx:Canvas label="Tab 3"/> </mx:ViewStack> </mx:Application> -abdul -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tim Blair Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2005 3:28 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Styling individual tabs in a TabNavigator Hello, Is it possible to style the colours of individual tabs in a tab navigator? For example, in the following code I'm attempting create a TabNavigator with three tabs, each of a different colour, but having no joy... I can style all tabs by using the Tab{} declaration, but I'm looking for a way to style each tab seperatly. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"> <mx:Style> .tab1 { fill-colors: #99cc00, #ccff66; selected-fill-colors: #00cc00, #66ff66; } .tab2 { fill-colors: #FFF04B, #FFFFCC; selected-fill-colors: #E9C414, #FFFFCC; } .tab3 { fill-colors: #8AC7D2, #CBEEF1; selected-fill-colors: #00A3B2, #CBEEF1; } </mx:Style> <mx:TabNavigator width="640" height="480" tabWidth="100"> <mx:Canvas label="Tab 1" styleName="tab1" /> <mx:Canvas label="Tab 2" styleName="tab2" /> <mx:Canvas label="Tab 3" styleName="tab3" /> </mx:TabNavigator> </mx:Application> Any suggestions/solutions?
