Hi, I've checked the skinning properties but don't understand how to use them. The API reference only points to SimpleButton class which has its own skin values like "SimpleButtonUp". I tried some of the properties but did not get them to work. And the API also says that "The SimpleButton control is also the the only control that allows you to specify skin properties in MXML" - which made me think that checkboxes cannot be handled the same way.
I am making a sort of print preview window. The data is entered in another place in another form and the container I'm making is only supposed to display the data and enable printing it on paper. So the controls should look nice and be inaccessible by the user. Hopefully this is not confusing..
