Hi Tom, Thanks for replying. Yes, I have played with the Flex Style Explorer and find it really cool and useful for lots of styling.
Unfortunately, it seems that the SELECTED tab can only be styled using backgroundColor. The non-selected tabs can use gradient fills, which is what I'd like for the selected tab. I've tried to figure out a way to skin it with an image (ideal) or get to it through another property without success. My workaround doesn't really get me what I want, but what I've done is set a backgroundImage on the TabBar component (backgroundSize=100%) and then set the selected tab to be transparent so that the background image comes through when it's selected. That works...okay...but I'd really like to control the background colors of the selected tabs individually. Maybe Flex 3.
