Hey, I'm new to the list and was hoping I could get a little help with a problem in flex that is driving me nuts. Here's the problem - when you have a TextInput control whose background color is black and whose text is white, how do you change the color of the selected text so that it's distinguishable from text that is not selected? I have tried changing every color-related property I could find but was not able to change the color of the selection. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml <http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml> " layout="horizontal" backgroundColor="#000000"> <mx:Style> TextInput { color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #000000; backgroundAlpha: 0.0; dropShadowEnabled: false; borderThickness: 2; borderStyle: solid; font-size: 18; } </mx:Style> <mx:TextInput text="Try and Select Me - where is the selection highlighting?" color="#FFFFFF"/> </mx:Application> Corey...
