The border stuff was done through borderStyle I believe with errorTooltipRight or something like that. So your component may need to support that style.

Ok, looking at TextInput, apparently I needed some weird metatags: [Bindable] [ChangeEvent("valueCommitted")] [ChangeEvent("clear")] [NonCommittingChangeEvent("change")] I put those above my public variable, and I now get the tooltip error... however, it doesn't draw the red-rect. I guess I have to implement my own drawFocus, pressFocus methods? ----- Original Message ----- From: "JesterXL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flexcoders" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, December 27, 2005 12:18 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Custom Validation Error I've been trying to solve this for a week. I'm making progress, but at a snails pace. My goal is to have my custom component show a tooltip like TextInputs do when you have a validation error. In my debugging various Flex framework files, apparently _Application_watcherSetup creates a bunch of PropertyWatchers. The issue is, my custom comonent proprties do not pass in an object for the 2nd parameter to PropertyWatcher, and thus do not trigger validation events so Binding + ToolTipManager and friends can show a validation error as a tooltip with the errorString. The Application-generated.as file is weird, though; the _Application_watcherSetup just has 3 dependecy variables, and I can't find who is creating the PropertyWatchers even though the FlexBuilder 1.5 call stack claims it's that function.
