It's certainly helpful to have as much information as possible. In my case, I wanted to hide the highlight colors except around the edges (past the border of the itemRenderers). Would it make any sense to provide an override to allow people to set a property that lets the component use its CSS style? The fix I found is fairly easy, but a property would be even easier ;-). -Amy
