It sounds like all you need is ToolTip styling, not ToolTip skinning.
Did you try
<mx:Style>
ToolTip { borderColor: blue; backgroundColor: yellow; color: red }
</mx:Style>
?

Subject: [flexcoders] ToolTip TextField TextColor
Hi all,
I've run into a problem with globally skinning ToolTips. I am to skin
the border and background by using a programmatic borderSkin. However,
the textField in ToolTip.as is protected and I'm not sure how to change
it's style globally (tried TextField CSS). I'm just looking for a way
to change the text color for all tool tips. If there's a way to apply
a textFormat through CSS, that might work. But, so far, no luck trying
to change this style. As usual, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
-TH
