You can set the button's paddingLeft and paddingRight styles. I have no problem making the left and right padding larger, or somewhat smaller. But I can't get it down to only 2 pixels; there seems to be some extra slop. When I try using negative numbers that are too large, the label becomes truncated with ... .
So you'll probably have to extend Button and override measure() and updateDisplayList(). Or you could "cheat" and simply set the exact width and height of the button to get the look you want. - Gordon -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of shemeshkale Sent: Wednesday, March 29, 2006 3:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Re: need help with programatic skin not what i meant. a button in flex have a default "gap" (padding in html/css) between text and the buttons border - on both left&right sides. how do i change this? --- In [email protected], "Jason Hawryluk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > If I understand you question correctly.
