Does a plain UITextFIeld also have the white box? Can you post a simple test case?
Instead of reading the factory, why not just call getStyle() on the cssstyledecl. We have equivalent code in UITextField From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of giannif17 Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2008 3:25 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Regular TextField styling. There is a subtle translucent white box surrounding my Label component. You can hardly see it, but it's there. It's pretty much invisible on my mac, but on my pc you can see it more clearly. Our designers are quite picky about it. A good comparison is a canvas with backgroundColor white, and backgroundAlpha ".01". I don't see a ready event for the factory on CSSStyleDeclaration, all the properties I need are actually in a protected var called overrides, because when the stylesheet loads, setStyle is called. There won't ever be a factory. If I could just get at that overrides property... Any help is appreciated. --- In [email protected]<mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com>, Alex Harui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > UITextField is just a subclass of TextField.
