My specific requirement is skinning the scrollbar thumb. It is drawn in Flash as a vector shape (the thumb itself) containing another shape (a rectangle) in the middle of the first one. When the scrollbar resizes (stretches), I don't want the middle shape to stretch as well, but retain its shape. Since the shapes are used for skinning and embedded in Flex, I don't have code to manage them. So I'm still at a loss on how to prevent the resizing of the inner shape.
