Hi Tim In the trackSkin as shown by your code, you are embedding some png files.Do i have to embed files too and also what's the content of that file. Deos that file have just the rectangle showing my desired width and height because when i am trying to put the simple 'width' tag within the trackSkin, Flex builder is not letting me do that. So i am not sure how should i use trackSkin for my purpose. You have send me the code which helps me but I am not sure what's the output of the code looks like (and which type of PNG files are you using). Can you please send me the snapshot/sketch of the UI being generated with the code. Sorry for being pain but its taking little time for me to understand the styling and skinning concept of the HBox. I appreciate your patience Thanks a lot Anuj
