Extend mx.controls.sliderClasses.SliderThumb
override the measure() function with something like this:
override protected function measure():void
{
super.measure();
measuredWidth = THE_WIDTH_YOU_WANT;
measuredHeight = THE_HEIGHT_YOU_WANT;
}
Then set the sliderThumbClass attribute of your Slider to the class
reference for your extended thumb class. The default SliderThumb class has a
width and height of 12 hardcoded in.

First, a picture of what's going on:

I want the slider to appear like the slider on the right. However, once it
loads in Flex, I get
the slider on the left - with the shrunken thumb button.
The graphics were done in Flash CS3, and have been exported into a swf.
The CSS rule I've
defined for the slider is as follows:
Slider {
thumbDisabledSkin: Embed(source="/assets/skins/viewerSkin.swf",
symbol="SliderThumb_disabledSkin");
thumbDownSkin: Embed(source="/assets/skins/viewerSkin.swf",
symbol="SliderThumb_downSkin");
thumbOverSkin: Embed(source="/assets/skins/viewerSkin.swf",
symbol="SliderThumb_overSkin");
thumbUpSkin: Embed(source="/assets/skins/viewerSkin.swf",
symbol="SliderThumb_upSkin");
trackHighlightSkin: Embed(source="/assets/skins/viewerSkin.swf",
symbol="SliderHighlight_Skin");
trackSkin: Embed(source="/assets/skins/viewerSkin.swf",
symbol="SliderTrack_Skin");
dataTipOffset: -50;
}
I've been searching for ways to specify the height of the thumb for a
while now, and
haven't had any luck. Any suggestions?
