[flexcoders] Setting a Background Image in Flex 2 - Final

[Clarke Bishop]

I want to set a background image to match the gradient in a graphic I've got. Sounds simple, right? Just specify the backgroundImage in the Application object.   However, I must be totally missing something since I've tried everything I can think of, and I still can't get any background images to display. Is there a trick? Also, I see in the Flex Style Explorer that they use a SWF with a symbol definition. When I defined a symbol in Flash 8, Flex doesn't recognize the symbol definition.   Thanks for any pointers or other suggestions!       Clarke __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Web site design development Computer software development Software design and development Macromedia flex Software development best practice YAHOO!
